Ventris anterior cages are indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment. The device systems are designed for use with allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and/or autograft to facilitate fusion. One device is used per intervertebral body space. Ventris anterior cages are intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Ventris 2-screw anterior cages may be used as a stand alone device only when two (2) vertebral body bone screws are used. Ventris 4-screw anterior cages may be used as a stand alone device only when at least two (2) vertebral body bone screws are inserted in the two medial fixation holes with one inferior and one superior screw trajectory. If the physician chooses to use Ventris anterior cages with fewer than two (2) screws in the two medial fixation holes with one inferior and one superior screw trajectory, then an additional supplemental spinal fixation system cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine must be used. Ventris anterior cages are intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, in patients having an ODI >40 and diagnosed with severe symptomatic adult spinal deformity (ASD) conditions. When used to treat ASD, or when cages with more than 20° of lordosis are used, Ventris anterior cages must be used with a supplemental spinal fixation system cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine and cannot be used as a stand alone. Ventris anterolateral cages are indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment. The device systems are designed for use with allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and/or autograft to facilitate fusion. One device is used per intervertebral body space. Ventris anterolateral cages are intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, in patients having an ODI >40 and diagnosed with severe symptomatic adult spinal deformity (ASD) conditions. Ventris anterolateral cages are intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Ventris anterolateral cages are intended to be used with a supplemental spinal fixation system cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine. Ventris lateral cages are indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment. The device systems are designed for use with allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and/or autograft to facilitate fusion. One device is used per intervertebral body space. Ventris lateral cages are intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, in patients having an ODI >40 and diagnosed with severe symptomatic adult spinal deformity (ASD) conditions. Ventris lateral cages are intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Ventris lateral cages are intended to be used with a supplemental spinal fixation system cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine.

The Ventris system consists of intervertebral body fusion devices intended for lumbar interbody fusion using an anterior lumbar interbody fusion surgical approach (ALIF), anterolateral (i.e., oblique) lumbar interbody fusion surgical approach (AOLIF), or a lateral lumbar interbody fusion surgical approach (LLIF). The devices are intended to improve stability of the spine while supporting fusion. The Ventris constructs are intended for use at one or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine (L2-S1). The components are offered in different shapes and sizes to meet the requirements of the individual patient's anatomy and are provided sterile. Ventris cages are available in six configurations: Ventris Ti Interbody anterior four-hole constructs for ALIF approach, Ventris Ti FRA Interbody anterior fully round ALIF (FRA) constructs for ALIF approach, Ventris Ti Open Interbody anterior two-hole constructs for ALIF approach, Ventris Ti AL Interbody anterolateral (i.e., oblique) constructs for OLIF approach, Ventris Ti Lateral FX two-screw lateral constructs for LLIF approach, and Ventris Ti Lateral Interbody lateral constructs for LLIF approach. All cages are also available with increased surface area options that provide additional endplate surface area. For the increased surface area cages, the outer footprint remains the same, but the volume of the internal graft window is reduced, creating more endplate surface area. Ventris cages are secured on the vertebral bodies using bone screws. A cover plate assembly prevents the screws from backing out after insertion. The cages and cover plates are made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) per ASTM F3001 Standard Specification for Additive Manufacturing Titanium-6 Aluminum-4 Vanadium ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) with Powder Bed Fusion. The bone screw and cover plate screws are made from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) per ASTM F136 Standard Specification for Wrought Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) Alloy for Surgical Implant Applications. All anterior and anterolateral constructs are zero profile, reducing potential for vessel interference with the anterior column. All Ventris cages and cover plates are manufactured using the L-PBF (laser powder bed fusion) additive manufacturing method. L-PBF allows for the formation of solid, non-porous cages with a layered porous lattice structure on the surfaces of the components, including the surfaces of the interior graft window. This intricate structure facilitates bone in-growth by providing a larger surface of implant/bone contact than a buffed surface. Interbody cages and bone screws may also be titanium anodized to allow for identification of various heights/sizes by color. Ventris Ti Interbody cages, Ventris Ti FRA Interbody cages, Ventris Ti Open Interbody cages, Ventris Ti AL Interbody cages, Ventris Ti Lateral FX Interbody cages, Ventris Ti Lateral Interbody cages, and Ventris bone screws are also available with a Proximal HA Surface (hydroxyapatite) coating. Cages and bone screws are coated with 20mm HA layer composed of crystalline hydroxyapatite particles that mimic human bone tissue through shape, composition, and structure. This surface treatment increases implant anchoring by facilitating osseointegration and enhancing early bone growth. All Ventris devices are only available sterile packaged. Non-sterile, reusable surgical instruments to support implantation of the system are provided for use with Ventris devices are provided in steam sterilization trays.
