James Lynch, MD, and John Anson, MD, were the first physicians to use Life Spine's TiBOW MIS TLIF Expandable Spacer System.
Here's what you should know:
1. The systems expands in-situ allowing for increased endplate coverage and stability.
2. The system uses Osseo-Loc, which creates geometric surface architecture providing an osteophytic environment.
3. Dr. James Lynch practices out of Reno-based SpineNevada. Dr. Anson is with Las Vegas-based Spine and Brain Institute.
4. Dr. Anson said in a release, "The design of this system addresses common challenges associated with narrow TLIF devices by providing an expandable footprint and unimpeded graft aperture. I believe TiBOW is a safe and effective option for my patients, while potentially offering less pain and the ability to return to work faster."
