Spinal Elements® Announces Full Commercial Release of Ventana® 3D Printed Interbody Portfolio

CARLSBAD, California, November 28, 2023–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Spinal Elements, a spine technology company, today announced the full commercial launch of their Ventana 3D printed Interbody portfolio: the Ventana C Anterior Cervical Interbody System, Ventana P/T Posterior Lumbar Interbody System and Ventana L Lateral Lumbar Interbody System. Developed by Spinal Elements, the Ventana portfolio is the latest innovation in its MIS Ultra^® platform of products and procedural solutions.

The Ventana portfolio features a uniquely designed implant architecture that maximizes bone graft volume and containment through a specialized 3D printing process, which also minimizes the amount of titanium used to enhance radiographic visualization.

“The Ventana implant family features a 3D printed architecture that enables clear radiographic visualization during imaging. The implant windows allow a large amount of bone graft to be safely placed into the disc space to ensure contact with the end plates, which I believe is essential to the fusion process,” said Neel Anand, MD, Anand Spine Group, Los Angeles, CA.

Ventana’s minimalist radiolucent grid design maximizes the amount of bone graft captured within the device and improves visualization during and after the spinal fusion procedure. Ventana’s design also acts like a snowshoe, allowing the bone graft to come into contact with the endplates while providing a wide surface area to help prevent implant subsidence. The Ventana family of devices is available in different degrees of lordosis for restoring sagittal balance.

“The Spinal Elements team is committed to bringing innovative products to market that, when combined with our Orbit discectomy instrument set and our fixation systems, such as Karma^®Overwatch^® or Sapphire^®are successfully working together to achieve spinal fusion,” said Ron Lloyd, CEO of Spinal Elements. “Ventana represents another important milestone in our mission to redefine spine healthcare.”

The Ventana 3D printed interbody portfolio was developed organically by the Spinal Elements team with input and guidance from thought leaders in the field of spine surgery.
