S4® Long Tab

Versatile MIS Spinal System

The synergy of more than ten years of clinical application, operational simplicity and unique system features, the S4® Long Tab system evolves to a pedicle screw system enabling the user to perform a streamlined surgical technique with small MIS skin incisions.


Clinical Benefits

  • Direct Visualization
    • The extended blades provide a constant direct view of the surgical site without the need of additional instruments, facilitating the surgical steps and monitoring during surgery
  • Guided Rod Insertion
    • The system offers intuitive, streamlined instrumentation to facilitate efficiency in the OR workflow. Combined with the special MIS design of the implants, a guided rod insertion is practicable. In addition, the integrated reduction capability of the screws reduces the need for additional instrumentation.
  • Lean Surgical Workflow
    • The system is based on the proven and versatile S4® platform technologies that are designed to meet the surgeons demand for a quicker yet streamlined surgical procedure
  • MIS Skin Incisions
    • The slim profile technology of the screw allows for a small implant design of 10.5 mm diameter and therefore for MIS skin incisions and instrument manipulation in tight anatomical spaces. Furthermore good cosmetic results can be achieved. Supported by a comprehensive spinal product portfolio the S4® Long Tab allows to provide patients all the benefits of MIS surgery.
