About V-STRUT©
V-STRUT© Vertebral Implant is an implantable medical device made of INVIBIO PEEK Optima® polymer indicated for use in the treatment of vertebral fractures in the thoracic and lumbar spine. It is intended to be used in combination with Teknimed F20® bone cement. V-STRUT© is patented and cleared in the USA. The device was developed with the support of Key Opinion Leaders in the spine surgery.
