Cascadia AN 3D
Interbody System
The Cascadia AN 3D Interbody System includes a full range of implant sizes carefully designed to accommodate the vertebral anatomy. This system is used in conjunction with instrumentation that allows for both direct implant insertion and in-situ rotation. Lamellar 3D Titanium Technology incorporates 300-500 um longitudinal channels, which in conjunction with transverse windows, create an interconnected lattice designed to allow for bony integration.

Features
Roughened titanium surfaces have been shown to demonstrate increased protein expression in contrast to smooth titanium surfaces3,4,5
Lamellar 3D titanium interbody with approximately 70% porosity1
Reverse hourglass design allows for a large graft volume1
Bulleted nose to ease insertion1
3-5 μm surface roughness to allow for direct bony ongrowth1,2
