K2M Wins FDA Clearance, CE Mark for Cascadia Lateral Interbody System

Medical device firm K2M has nabbed FDA 510(k) clearance and the CE Mark for its Cascadia lateral interbody system.

The system is equipped with the company’s Lamellar Titanium Technology, which uses 3D printing to allow for bony integration throughout an implant, according to the company.

Bony integration is enabled by titanium interbody with approximately 70 percent porosity, as well as rough surfaces.

K2M adds that the system is designed to work in conjunction with the Ravine lateral access system, offering a full line of instrumentation for the far lateral transpsoas approach. — Michael Cipriano
