Quantum Orthopedics’ President and CEO, Todd Andres said “The Crystal™ VBR is one of several products we will be introducing this year as Quantum Orthopedics broadens its product offering. This product adds to a successful line of vertebral body replacement devices that we currently offer. The Crystal™ series of implants was optimized to offer maximum bony in-growth area and while maintaining implant structural strength. The system includes a color-coded instrument system designed to enable the surgeon to safely and quickly perform the procedure. ”

Crystal™ implants feature generous grafting windows and a large interior graft space for optimal performance. Additionally, Crystal™ implants feature uni-directional ridges designed to prevent implant migration. The Crystal™ spinal spacers are made from PEEK-OPTIMA®, an advanced biomaterial from Invibio®.
