The “SGL” system was designed to provide secure realignment, stabilization, and fixation of the Thoraco-Lumbar spine.
A low profile design of a self-guided locking mechanism stabilizes the construct, while the bi-helix thread increases speed-of-screw insertion. SGL simultaneously increases ease-of-use and reduces surgery time improving patient safety.
LfC has over 20 years’ experience in transpedicular screw systems. The development of further designs always aimed to meet specific surgeon’s needs and to solve the issues transpedicular screw surgeries face.
