SiJoin® T4 is an additive titanium implant, where the trabecular construction is engineered to mimic cancellous bone structure.

LARGO, FL, UNITED STATES, November 6, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- VGI Medical, a leading developer of advanced medical devices focused on enhancing spinal surgery outcomes, is pleased to announce the successful completion of initial surgeries using its proprietary SiJoin T4 implant, performed by Dr. Jeff Beck.

“It was thrilling to perform the first SIJ Fusion procedure in the U.S. using VGI Medical's T4 implant,” stated Dr. Beck, owner of Wellspring Pain Solutions, a Capital Pain Institute company. “The T4, a porous, 3D-printed titanium device, is designed with extensive bone graft windows and vertical spiked fins which provide superior fixation and stability, promoting accelerated bone ingrowth across its osteoconductive surface. Unlike structural allografts, which may resorb and weaken over time, the T4 implant retains its mechanical integrity, leading to a more predictable, durable fusion."

Dr. Beck emphasized the potential benefits of using advanced materials and pioneering implant designs for his patients in Bloomington, Columbus, and Terre Haute, Indiana. "This approach promises improved fusion rates and surgical outcomes, aligning with our commitment to delivering optimal results.”

Tov Vestgaarden, VGI Medical’s President, CEO, and founder, expressed his enthusiasm for the milestone: “We are excited about these initial surgeries with the SiJoin T4, which we believe will be a transformative solution in the industry. These surgeries mark the beginning of our next phase toward full commercialization. As we prepare for a comprehensive product launch, our focus is on building inventory of disposable instruments and finalizing our kits, with the goal of achieving a full rollout by Q1 2025."
