4WEB Medical Announces First U.S. Surgeries with Curved TLIF Device
The introduction:
BOSTON, Oct. 27, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- 4WEB Medical, the industry leader in 3D printed implant technology, announced today at the annual meeting of the North American Spine Society (NASS) that the first surgeries utilizing the company's Curved Posterior Spine Truss System (PSTS) for TLIF procedures were recently performed. Cameron Carmody, MD, of Texas Spine Consultants in Dallas stated, "The Curved TLIF device from 4WEB provides yet another viable treatment option that leverages the company's patented truss implant technology. I have tried several of the new titanium implant designs on the market produced with additive manufacturing and the 4WEB technology has provided the best clinical outcomes for my patients. In addition to excellent clinical results, the 4WEB implant portfolio stands above the rest with the widest range of devices for ALIF, TLIF, Cervical, PLIF, and Lateral spine procedures."
Jeffrey Wise, MD, Blue Ridge Orthopaedic and Spine Center, who also utilized the Curved TLIF PSTS upon its market release said, "With virtually every company now promoting a 3D printed porous titanium implant with stimulative surface roughness, it is refreshing that 4WEB continues to innovate with implants that are uniquely differentiated. While 4WEB¹s truss implants have at least three times more surface area for cell adhesion and differentiation than competitive products, the most important feature is found in the structural mechanics associated with the truss design. The kinetic load distribution throughout the entire fusion column delivers microstrain to adjacent cellular material which can aid in healing by capitalizing on the concepts described by Wolff's law."

The introduction:
When 4WEB Medical joined the North Texas Enterprise Center in Frisco five years ago, it was a one-man show with the purpose of providing spinal implants through 3-D printing.
With of the help of NTEC, a business incubator and accelerator, 4WEB Medical became the first company to have a Food and Drug Administration approved spine device manufactured with 3-D printing. The company now has 20 employees.
“NTEC was very helpful in the early days in terms of facilitating introductions, providing guidance and useful resources and giving us a home for our idea,” 4WEB Medical CFO Darren McCallon said.
