The Cage Banana (TLIF) – PEEK is a lumbar spinal interbody implant manufactured from PEEK, designed for use within compatible Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF) systems according to the manufacturer’s approved indications and surgical technique.
The implant features a characteristic curved / banana-shaped interbody geometry designed for placement within the lumbar intervertebral space through an appropriate transforaminal surgical approach. The cage incorporates a central open structure, additional openings within the implant body, and textured vertebral contact surfaces visible in the supplied product image.
According to the supplied catalog information, the implant material is:
Material: PEEK
The product family is listed under:
Cat. No.: AMS 527.007.000
The cage is available in eight listed configurations from 7 mm to 14 mm, progressing in regular 1 mm increments. This selection range provides multiple implant options according to lumbar anatomy, intervertebral space dimensions, required cage fit, endplate preparation, and intraoperative assessment.
Each configuration carries a dedicated Cat. No. and GTIN No., supporting accurate implant identification, product traceability, surgical set preparation, procurement, inventory management, and stock control.
Product Explanation
The Cage Banana (TLIF) is an interbody spinal implant intended for placement within the lumbar intervertebral space as part of a compatible TLIF construct.
A simplified construct can be represented as:
Lumbar Vertebral Body → TLIF Cage → Adjacent Vertebral Body → Lumbar Interbody Fusion Construct
The curved cage geometry is characteristic of implants intended for transforaminal lumbar interbody placement, while the central opening forms part of the implant structure and may accommodate compatible graft material where permitted by the manufacturer’s approved technique.
Product Components and Design
- PEEK Cage Body
The primary structural component is manufactured from PEEK, according to the supplied catalog.
The cage body provides the main interbody implant geometry.
- Banana-Shaped / Curved Geometry
The implant features a curved configuration identified in the catalog as:
Cage Banana (TLIF)
This geometry differentiates it from straight PLIF-type cage designs.
- Central Open Graft Space
The implant includes a large central opening within the cage body.
Where permitted by the approved IFU, this space may be used to accommodate suitable graft material.
The exact graft volume is not specified.
- Textured / Serrated Contact Surfaces
The vertebral contact surfaces visibly incorporate ridged or serrated geometry.
Exact tooth dimensions, surface roughness, and anti-migration performance are not specified in the supplied data.
- Lateral / Instrumentation Openings
The implant includes additional openings along its sides and ends.
These may form part of the insertion, handling, visualization, or instrumentation design; their exact function should be confirmed from the official surgical technique guide.
- Listed Size Configurations
The product is available in:
- 7 mm
- 8 mm
- 9 mm
- 10 mm
- 11 mm
- 12 mm
- 13 mm
- 14 mm
providing eight listed variants.
Intended Use
The Cage Banana (TLIF) – PEEK is intended for use within compatible lumbar interbody spinal systems, according to the manufacturer’s approved indications and Instructions for Use.
Potential applications, when included within the approved indications, may include:
- Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF).
- Lumbar interbody support.
- Lumbar fusion constructs.
- Reconstruction of an appropriate lumbar intervertebral space.
- Interbody stabilization as part of a compatible lumbar spinal construct.
Selection of the appropriate cage configuration depends on:
- Lumbar anatomy.
- Intervertebral space dimensions.
- Required implant fit.
- Endplate preparation.
- Bone quality.
- Cage positioning.
- Adjacent fixation construct.
- Preoperative planning.
- Intraoperative assessment.
The implant should be selected and implanted by a qualified spine surgeon according to the approved surgical technique and IFU.
