Product Description

The InSWing Interspinous Spacer is a decompression solution developed to relieve pain from lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS).  This device offers the advantages of a reduced incision size, minimized muscle trauma and preservation of the supraspinous ligament.

InSWing offers a less invasive surgical approach, requires minimal or local anesthesia, reduces blood loss, and results in shorter rehabilitation then alternative surgical procedures. 

Placed between the spinous processes of the lumbar spine using a unique unilateral approach, innovative InSWing is secured through the deployment of a proprietary double-wing structure resulting in the widening of the spinal canal and decompression of the symptomatic level.

Additional stability can be obtained with the application of a polyester band.
