Fill with Bone Graft

5
Fill with bone graft
Prior to implantation, fill the implant endplates with bone
graft. Place additional bone graft on the contralateral side
of the corpectomy (which cannot be reached after insertion
of the Synex implant). Fill the hollow body of the implant
after expansion.
6
Insert implant
Guide and position the implant with the implant holder.
Ensure that the release opening is facing the implant
holder to allow repositioning if necessary.
Note: The optimal position for the implant is in the center of
the vertebral endplate. Maintain space around the endplate
of the implant to allow for peripheral bony fusion.
