Spinal Elements received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Lucent 3D interbody device.
This is the company's first clearance in its Lucent 3D line, according to an April 20 news release. The 3D-printed implant comprises a strut-and-lattice structure with a bone graft chamber access lid. The FDA clearance allows the company to stand out in the 3D-printed interbody market.
"Lucent 3D's novel design is meant to address the challenges surgeons have shared with us of other 3D-printed interbody devices — subsidence and the amount of bone graft material available for fusion," President and CEO Jason Blain said.
