It comes in different designs based on the indication, anatomy and patient. Example Inspan Slim for L5-S1. Inspan Vega for spondylolisthesis. Self-locking screws for added fixation as in trauma, Scoliosis or spondylolisthesis.www.MyInspan.com

- EASY to put in EASY to unlock take out
- MIDLINE MINI-OPEN decompression
- Minimally invasive percutaneous instruments
- NO INTRAMUSCULAR dissection
- Contoured fit to lamina

- Great fusion bed between the decorticated spinous process to fill with NanoFUSE Biologics plus packed over the facets for lateral fusion
- Over 10-year peer-reviewed clinical follow-up published data
- More than one design for different patient sizes and pathology
