The spacer is designed for microinvasive procedures ranging from endoscopic surgery to minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusions.

“ProLift micro is designed for a fully percutaneous fusion via an endoscopic approach,” Life Spine COO Rich Mueller said in a news release. “The procedure, which is being developed for next year, consists of fully integrated augmented reality and 3D imaging.”

The device is the company’s 14th expandable interbody device.

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
