In the fast-evolving field of spine surgery, interbody fusion cages have become essential tools for treating degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and spinal instability. These titanium or PEEK implants restore disc height, stabilize the lumbar spine, and promote solid bone fusion. Two of the most trusted options are the TLIF Cage and PLIF Cage – designed for precision, durability, and patient outcomes.
TLIF Cage (Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion)
The TLIF Cage is inserted through a single-sided posterior approach, minimizing muscle disruption and nerve retraction. Its bullet-nosed, lordotic design allows easy insertion even in collapsed disc spaces. Available in various heights (8–16 mm) and footprints, the cage features a large graft window and porous surface that accelerates osseointegration. Surgeons prefer TLIF for its minimally invasive compatibility, reduced blood loss, and lower risk of dural tears. Ideal for L4-L5 and L5-S1 levels, it delivers excellent segmental lordosis and long-term stability.
PLIF Cage (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion)
The PLIF Cage is placed bilaterally from a direct posterior approach, offering maximum surface area contact with the vertebral endplates. Its rectangular or trapezoidal shape provides superior anterior column support and immediate rigidity. With a wide central canal for bone graft packing, PLIF cages are perfect for cases requiring robust fusion in patients with severe disc degeneration or revision surgeries. The design ensures parallel distraction and excellent radiographic visibility under fluoroscopy.
Why Choose These Cages?
Both implants are radiolucent (PEEK) or radiopaque (titanium) options with anti-migration teeth and FDA/CE-certified quality. They reduce recovery time, lower adjacent segment stress, and achieve fusion rates above 95%. Whether your case needs the unilateral precision of TLIF or the bilateral strength of PLIF, these cages deliver consistent, reproducible results.
