ATHLET

The ATHLET® VBR System is a lordotic, modular vertebral body replacement (VBR) system. One cranial and one caudal component are assembled to create a device construct. These components are available in a variety of sizes. This enables the surgeon to choose the size suited to the individual pathology and anatomical condition. The assembled device comprises a central cannula for bone graft and lateral fenestrations for bone in-growth. Teeth cover the ends of the device construct for improved in-situ fixation.​
