Accelus Toro Lateral Interbody Fusion System Gets FDA’s 510(k) Clearance

Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.-based Accelus has received the FDA’s 510(k) clearance for its Toro-L lateral interbody fusion system.

The device features an insertion profile that is 14 mm wide, expanding to a full width of either 21 or 24 mm before further expanding to a height of up to 16 mm.

The implant has 3D-printed endplates, which have a roughened surface where the implant interfaces with bone due to the additive manufacturing process.

Accelus will initially offer the implant with a 10-degree lordotic option — to allow for the inward curve of a patient’s spine — and will later add 5-degree and 15-degree lordotic options.
