Captiva Spine completed the WatchTower Spine Navigation system's first ASC 3D navigated MIS pedicle screw series in the U.S. using 2D percutaneous registration.
Among the clearances is the VyLam System, which is indicated for use in laminoplasty of the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine in skeletally mature patients.
Over 3,000 pedicle screws have been implanted in the initial 500 surgeries, with patients experiencing positive outcomes, including no known infections or non-fusions.
The new instrument set expands the range of endoscopic offerings by separating the instrument working port from the endoscope, allowing for free relative movement between the two.
The proof-of-concept study will evaluate the Electric Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (e-TLIF) procedur,e integrating spinal fusion with direct nerve stimulation.
