    Oblique ALIF System

    The El Capitan Oblique Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion System is a comprehensive system that provides a complete range of anatomic spacers, plates, and fixation options for rigid oblique anterior lumbar stabilization. The system’s intuitive design provides the versatility to accommodate either a left or right-sided approach to address a wide array of anatomical challenges to ensure an efficient, streamlined sequence.

Implants Overview

    • Interbodies

      All El Capitan Oblique Anterior Lumbar Interbody Spacers are:

      • Available in either Acid-Etched Ti or HA PEEK
      • Four different axial footprint options to accommodate varied patient anatomy
      • Large central aperture to pack bone graft to provide a greater opportunity for fusion
      • Tapered leading edge allows for self-distraction of the intervertebral space during insertion, as well as conservation of critical structural anatomy

    • HA Peek Overview

      • HA is fully integrated, not coated, making it available on all surfaces of the spacer to provide an osteoconductive surface for bone ingrowth
      • Unidirectional serrated teeth to resist migration postoperatively
      • Radiographic markers provide fluoroscopic visualization of the exact orientation of the spacer during implantation
