PrinterPrezz and Osseus to Develop 3D-Printed Spine Implants

PrinterPrezz will collaborate with Osseus Fusion Systems to develop new spinal interbody fusion devices. The two partnered in 2018 to develop Aries products, including ALIF, cervical and expandable lumbar fusion cages. New devices will be submitted to FDA in late 2019.

The new designs will leverage the latest in additive manufacturing technologies and be built at PrinterPrezz’s San Francisco Bay Area Innovation Center. The next generation of Aries devices will feature optimized lattices to encourage bone on- and through-growth, as well as optimized micro-structure topography to support fusion.

Shri Shetty, CEO of PrinterPrezz, said, “Research and development costs, timelines and filing complexity are the biggest challenges for midsize innovators. By partnering with such companies, PrinterPrezz can help to reduce the time and cost associated with developing new products and facilitate both efficient and timely 510(k) applications. We look forward to designing and manufacturing future spine surgery innovations through our partnership with Osseus.”
