LeVerage LFS is intended for use in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine (C3 to T3) in laminoplasty procedures. LeVerage LFS is used to hold the allograft material in place in order to prevent the allograft material from expulsion, or impinging the spinal cord. Leverage LFS implants are made from titanium alloy. This material was selected for its stability, corrosion resistance and strong mechanical properties. Long-term clinical experience of the use of this material has shown that an acceptable level of biological response can be expected, if the material is used in appropriate applications.
