PLIF surgery is a type of spinal fusion surgery that is used to treat a variety of conditions, including degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, and spondylolisthesis.

Specifications:

• A small, hollow device made of various materials.
• Designed to promote bone growth and fusion.
• Easy to perform with an open or minimally invasive procedure.
• Designed with anatomical structure and optimal fusion conditions.
• Come in a variety of shapes and sizes to meet the demands of the patient.
• Restores alignment, offers stability, reduces pain from abnormal motion by filling intervertebral space.
• Typically has a graft window on the top and bottom of the cage to allow for bone graft placement.
