Evaluation and Comparison of Subsidence Properties of 4WEB Lateral Device versus an Annular Lateral Device.Upcoming actuation systems will be required to perform multiple tightly coupled functions analogous to their natural counterparts e.g., the ability to control displacements and high-resolution appearance simultaneously is necessary for mimicking the camouflage seen in cuttlefish. 4WEB is actively developing truss implant designs for knee, hip, trauma and patient specific orthopedic procedures.įor more information about 4WEB Medical, 4WEB's Truss Implant Technology, and the Spine Truss Systems, please visit The 4WEB Medical product portfolio includes the Cervical Spine Truss System, the ALIF Spine Truss System, the Posterior Spine Truss System, the Lateral Spine Truss System, and the Osteotomy Truss System. The company leveraged this breakthrough along with cutting-edge 3D printing technology to develop 4WEB Medical's proprietary truss implant platform. Thirty years of research in topological dimension theory led to the discovery of a novel geometry, the 4WEB, that can be used as a building block to create high-strength, lightweight web structures. These results are indicative of the optimized load distribution inherent to 4WEB's truss implant technology that maximizes endplate contact while providing an open architecture for bone formation and fusion."ĤWEB Medical is an implant device company founded in 2008 in Dallas, Texas. "In fact, the 40mm length truss implant displayed 61% greater resistance to subsidence than the 60mm length ring implant 1.
"A recent study comparing 4WEB's lateral truss implant to a ring implant design demonstrated that the truss design had superior resistance to subsidence," said John Peloza, MD, Center for Spine Care, Dallas, Texas. The key differentiator for the product, though, is its proprietary truss design and the performance it lends to driving successful spine fusion results. The Lateral Spine Truss System is designed with a unique bi-convex dome that distributes load across a larger surface area and has three times more textured surface topography when compared to other competitive spine implants.
