Device typeVertebral body prosthesis: An implantable device designed to replace one or more vertebral body(s) that has collapsed or been surgically removed due to trauma, tumour or degenerative disease. Also known as a corpectomy or vertebrectomy spacer, it is in the form of a one-piece or modular hollow cylinder made of inorganic materials (e.g., metal, polymer). It is typically used with supplemental spinal fixation and/or bone graft, and some types are adjustable for in situ adjustment of prosthesis height to allow intraoperative distraction of adjacent vertebrae.
