Life Spine has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for its GHOST 3D-printed titanium spacer systems.
The new spacers augment Life Spine’s interbody portfolio already comprised of PEEK, titanium, and now 3D-printed titanium spacers. The new implants include solutions for ALIF, PLIF/TLIF, and lateral procedures.
GHOST spacers have porous surfaces to promote bony in-growth, all with an external lattice geometry. The implants are available in a range of footprints and lordotic options and feature streamlined instrumentation supplemented by a portfolio of posterior fixation including AVATAR percutaneous screws, NAUTILUS spinal fixation, CENTERLINE midline screws, and ARx spinal fixation.
The integrated porous structure spans the endplate surfaces and graft window column. Large graft windows facilitate packing bone graft material, and a smooth bulleted tip aids in intuitive insertion.
“We are excited about the expansion of our interbody portfolio to include 3D-printed implants. Our robust offering is one of the broadest in the industry and includes solutions for nearly every procedure and surgeon preference. With the PEEK, titanium, and expandable interbody product lines, the addition of 3D-printed titanium interbodies allows Life Spine to offer physicians alternative solutions to customize their patient’s treatment,” Mariusz Knap, Life Spine’s senior VP of marketing, told the press.
