JASPIS® ST is implanted in the C3-TH1 spinal region using the proven Smith-Robinson technique. As well as the simple implantation procedure, the large surface area of cage maximises the area of contact to the vertebral body and also maximises the filling volume.

The open design of the implant permits the cage to be packed with natural or synthetic bone graft substitute such as KAINOS® Inject.

The large selection of implants provides for a high degree of intraoperative flexibility and ensures restoration of the intervertebral space. In addition to the parallel implants, JASPIS® ST is also available in an 8° lordosis angle (due to the taper of the cage all 4 mm cages are fitted with a maximum lordosis angle of 4°).

Manufactured from a biocompatible titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) with proven strength.

The open, porous structure of ST implants increases the surface area for new bone cells to settle, thus increasing the contact surface between the implant and the end plate of the adjacent vertebral body. In combination with the surface roughness of the implant, a high primary stability and a significantly reduced risk of migration can therefore be achieved. This is additionally favoured by the open and interconnecting porosity, which enables successful grafting of endogenous cell material and its propagation.
