The ROI-A® Oblique ALIF cage system is a novel system designed for zero-profile, stand-alone* lumbar interbody fusion. While it shares the features and benefits of the original ROI-A® ALIF cage, which was designed for direct anterior insertion, the ROI-A Oblique cage and VerteBRIDGE® plating can be inserted from a 25° anterolateral angle that may reduce retraction of the great vessels and minimize the associated management of segmental vessels.
It also avoids the neurologic challenges of lateral trans-psoas techniques. These can be key advantages when treating degenerative disease of the lumbar spine, particularly at the L4-L5 level.
