RIWOspine - Model VERTEBRIS lumbar - Full-endoscopic Spine Surgery System
The VERTEBRIS lumbar instrument set is designed for full-endoscopic decompression of the lumbar and thoracic spine. 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.
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.
- High-resolution diskoscopes with working length for posterolateral and lateral transforaminal approach.
- Optimized ratio of large working channel to outside diameter for minimal invasive access and effective operation.
- Optimized fluid management by sophisticated dimensioning of in and outflow - Prevention of neural compression by high pressures of the irrigation fluid.
- Work Sleeves with atraumatic distal design to protect neural structures.
- Stable grasping forceps and punches for effective soft tissue and bone resection with overload protection.
- Endoscopic high-speed drilling system with reusable and disposable tools for mechanical bone and soft tissue resection.
- Tipcontrol instruments for 4 MHz radiofrequency coagulation and ablation.
