Cascadia TL 3D

Interbody System

The Cascadia TL 3D Interbody System includes a full range of implant sizes designed to accommodate the vertebral anatomy. The streamlined instrumentation is designed to aid in consistent and accurate implant placement. Lamellar 3D Titanium Technology incorporates 300-500 um longitudinal channels, which in conjunction with transverse windows can create an interconnected lattice designed to allow for bony integration. [1,2]

Main Features

  • Roughened titanium surfaces have been shown to demonstrate increased protein expression in contrast to smooth titanium surfaces [3,4,5]
  • Lamellar 3D titanium interbody with approximately 70% porosity [1]
  • Reverse hourglass design allows for a large graft volume [1]
  • Bulleted nose to ease insertion [1]
  • 3-5 μm surface roughness to allow for direct bony ongrowth [1,2]
