CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aurora Spine Corporation (“Aurora Spine” or the “Company”) (TSXV: ASG) (OTCQB: ASAPF), a leader in innovative spine and interventional pain management solutions, today announced initial surgeries using Aurora Spine’s newest product, the AERO™ Lumbar Fusion System, have commenced. The minimally invasive procedures using the AERO were conducted by two different surgeons, one ortho surgeon and one interventionalist. The initial surgeries performed were procedures done on the lumbar part of the spine.

“We are extremely pleased to announce our newest product: the AERO Lumbar Fusion System, has begun to be used by surgeons and implanted into patients,” said Trent Northcutt, President and CEO of Aurora Spine. “Initial feedback has been extremely positive, and we expect additional surgeons to start using the AERO in the coming months. Given the early interest in using this new technology, we have 10 kits available and ready for future lumbar fusion procedures. It is great to see strong interest in the AERO and I’m proud of our team with their ‘speed-to-market’ with regards to getting the AERO from development to approval to now being implanted in patients. We are proud of this achievement and excited about the AERO’s potential to become a significant growth driver for Aurora.”

The AERO MIS Lumbar Fusion System is a novel, patent-pending device designed to provide a minimally invasive solution for patients suffering from facet joint-related pain or instability. Cleared for use from spinal levels C2 to S1 (inclusive), the system can be used as a stand-alone facet fusion procedure or as an adjunct to larger spinal fusion surgeries.

Engineered for earlier use in the continuum of care, AERO is ideal for patients experiencing mechanical back pain, minor instability, or degenerative joint disease who have not responded to conservative therapies. The system incorporates intuitive instrumentation and implant technology designed to promote bone fusion while minimizing soft tissue disruption—aligning with Aurora Spine’s commitment to advancing patient-first, surgeon-friendly innovations.
