The USPTO granted CTL Amedica U.S. Patent No. 11, 291.559, addressing the KLIMT™ Expandable Lumbar Interbody Fusion Cage design, which features proprietary, 3D-printed, expandable technology.
KLIMT cages feature a multi-density and variable, textured surface on all sides, which is designed to enhance bone inter-digitation and capillary response. Collapsed cages are small enough to work through a small endoscopic access port. In addition, multiple footprints are available to accommodate a wide variety of patient anatomy and surgeon preferences.
“Expandable Lumbar Interbody Cage technology is at the forefront of the spine implant industry. Innovative designs that allow surgeons to perform procedures through smaller access sites are becoming more abundant, so technologies like the KLIMT™ Expandable Lumbar Interbody Fusion Cage are increasingly important. We are producing otherwise challenging components, solely through 3D-printed technology,” said Sean Suh, Chief Technology Officer for CTL Amedica.
