The X-Pac cage supplements DePuy’s portfolio of lumbar degenerative and minimally invasive spine products.

The device is designed to provide controlled expansion of height and lordosis to allow for intraoperative adjustment depending on the patient’s anatomy. A lock ramp-feature built into the endplates offers a large graft space inside the cage for post-graft packing.

The company said these features help surgeons tailor treatment options for patients undergoing spinal fusion.
