Medtronic, Inc. has launched its X-STOP PEEK IPD System. It must be noted that this is the first IPD device offering a PEEK-Bone interface for treating the symptoms of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) that has received an approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration . Spine surgeons, now, have the option of using PEEK in IPD procedures providing benefits like radiolucency and biocompatibility. The minimally invasive treatment for LSS is made up of titanium alloy.
