Challenge
Why Should the Standard of Care Be Complex?
Balloon kyphoplasty remains fundamentally unchanged and highly dependent on balloon placement, visualization techniques, and procedural workflow.
Unlocking the Next Chapter of Vertebral Augmentation
As healthcare shifts toward outpatient and office-based care, physicians need technologies that are easier to learn, easier to perform, and easier to integrate into modern workflows.

The Solution
LATUS KB™ - Designed Around the Physician
Designed in collaboration with physicians and built around real procedural challenges, LATUS™ KB aims to simplify vertebral augmentation through a more intuitive and efficient approach. Healthcare continues to move toward outpatient and office-based settings.
Directionally Controlled Expansion
Designed to provide controlled expansion where physicians need it most.
Unilateral Approach
Engineered to support treatment through a single access point.
Contrast-Free Visualization
Designed to eliminate dependence on contrast media during balloon expansion.
Why it Matters
Expanding Access Begins with the Surgeon
Vertebral compression fractures leave many patients in pain and with limited treatment options, particularly in communities where few providers offer vertebral augmentation. Making vertebral augmentation more accessible requires solving the challenges that matter most in everyday practice.
Reduce the Learning Curve
Make the procedure easier to learn and easier to integrate into practice
Reduce Procedure Time
Improve efficiency and streamline workflow.
Reduce Cost
Lower procedural costs without compromising outcomes.
Reduce Risk
Increase procedural confidence while reducing risk.
Technology should work for the physician, not the other way around.
