FDA Clears Two Life Spine Lateral Fusion Systems

The FDA has granted 510(k) clearance to Life Spine’s TruLift Lateral Expandable Spacer System and its Lateral Plate System for lateral lumbar interbody fusions, a surgical approach through the patient’s side.

The TruLift Lateral system features an expandable titanium interbody that allows for easy attachment of plate fixation devices. The system can be expanded to a height between 8mm and 16mm to suit the patient’s anatomy.

The Lateral Plate system comes with one-screw, two-screw and four-screw options to provide stabilization and fixation of the lumbar spine.

The two systems can be used separately or in combination.
