The groundbreaking LONGBOW Expandable Lateral Spacer System is the first interbody on the market that expands laterally (A/P) in-situ specifically for a direct lateral approach. It allows for maximum endplate coverage with minimal anterior to posterior retraction and potentially decreases nerve damage. Longbow also simplifies insertion of bone graft, up to 11cc, post expansion.

 

“The LONGBOW spacer has changed the way I perform my lateral MIS procedures. LONGBOW is revolutionary in that I am getting the maximum amount of endplate coverage via expansion in-situ while reducing the amount of retraction nearly 50 percent by inserting the spacer in a collapsed position. This has meant less pain and risk for my patients, and overall better outcomes,” said Dr. Zeshan Hyder, Orthopedic Spine Surgeon at the Bone and Joint Specialists in Indiana.
