A study by Fogel et al. underscores the clinical potential of 3D-printed porous titanium cages in spinal fusion. Featuring stress-optimized body lattices and microporous endplates, these cages significantly reduce stiffness by over 16%, enhancing osseointegration and mechanical stability. This innovative design minimises the risk of subsidence and associated complications, offering improved bone ingrowth and reducing the likelihood of revision surgeries [13] Reference: G.
