The Stryker Spine AVS TM PL PEEK Spacer is a vertebral body replacement indicated for use in the thoraco-lumbar spine (T1-5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body resected or excised during partial and total vertebrectomy procedures due to tumor or trauma, to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. It is recommended to pack bone graft material inside the implant. The Stryker Spine AVST PL PEEK Spacer is intended for use with supplemental fixation.
