One of the challenges facing minimally invasive TLIF procedures has been the disappointing results related to the small footprint of the interbody cage.
The small footprint can lead to subsidence, pseudoarthrodesis and poor outcomes. Conversely, ALIF and lateral techniques offer implants with much larger footprints but these procedures present their own challenges and risks. The STAC MIS TLIF technique with SpineCraft TriOsteo implants allows the surgeon to create a large interbody construct similar in size to an ALIF or lateral procedure but through an MIS TLIF approach. It could be said that the STAC MIS TLIF technique offers the best of worlds; a less invasive TLIF approach with an interbody footprint similar in size to an ALIF device The procedure is made possible through the development of the SpineCraft PANORAMA Open-Access retractor that includes a proprietary axial opening that expands the surgeons working freedom in the disc plane. Click here to learn more about the PANORAMA Open-Access Retractor. The STAC interbody construct consists of 3 implants sequentially placed in the disc space. Two outer TriOsteo machined allograft implants that surround a midline synthetic cage. This combination results in a large surface area and rich osteoconductive environment ideal for fusion. |
