VERTEBRIS lumbar
Full-endoscopic decompression with interlaminar, transforaminal and extraforaminal approaches
The VERTEBRIS lumbar instrument set is designed for full-endoscopic decompression of the lumbar and thoracic spine.
The excellent optical properties of VERTEBRIS diskoscopes are the basis for intraoperative visualization and guide special instruments into the intraoperative area.
Typical indications include herniated discs, spinal cysts and spinal canal stenoses. The following approaches can be done full-endoscopically:
- Transforaminal
- Extraforaminal
- Interlaminar
The excellent optical properties of VERTEBRIS diskoscopes are the basis for intraoperative visualization and guide special instruments into the intraoperative area.
The universal setting of the instruments also makes it possible to expand the indications by gradually adding new components.
Trans-/ extraforaminal technique
The trans- or extraforaminal technique uses the intervertebral foramen as access to the pathology. The access to the intervertebral disk through the intervertebral foramen (transforaminal) or pedicle (extraforaminal) is placed under X-ray control with a puncture cannula. After dilation and insertion of the working sleeve, further surgery is performed through the diskoscopes under continuous irrigation with high-resolution endoscopic imaging.
Precision instruments such as forceps, punches, electrodes and burrs with a special design enable the surgeon to perform the surgery effectively and accurately.
Interlaminar technique
In interlaminar surgery, the access to the spinal canal is done via the posterior interlaminar window. The dilator is guided directly to the flavum ligament with a dilator without prior puncture. After placing the working sleeve over the dilator, the operation is performed through the high-resolution diskoscope under continuous irrigation. The functionality of the components of the access system and the instruments are precisely coordinated and allow to pass through the ligamentum flavum and the nerve root with minimal traumatization.
With special manual instruments and a variety of high-speed burrs available, herniated discs can be effectively removed and bone parts of spinal stenoses can be resected under a full-endoscopic view.
