GS1 Cannulated Screw Spinal System was designed in conjunction with practicing spine surgeons to incorporate function into a competitively priced Spinal Fixation System. The multi-axial head design has a full 28º of angulation in any direction (56º total). The GS1 Spinal system is designed for the treatment of acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine. This is achieved using the multiple available sizes of multi-axial screws, rods, hooks, and cross connectors.
GS1 Cannulated Screw System includes Multi-Axial Screws, Rods, and Cross-Connectors. The Multi-Axial Screws allow for 28° (56° total) of angulation in any direction and are available in multiple diameters and lengths with clearly marked sizes.Extended break off tabs eliminate the need to attach bulky towers and provide a built-in reduction feature. Screws are easily placed over a guide wire in either an open or percutaneous method. A Torque-Limiting Driver ensures all set screws are tightened correctly for the strongest fixation.
About MIS
The trend in spine surgery for many procedures has been moving toward minimally invasive approaches. These include spine surgery for lumbar fusion, deformity surgery, cervical surgery and sacroiliac joint fusion. The benefits of minimally invasive spine surgery (MIS) include decreased pain, less blood loss, shorter hospital stays and faster recovery. However, there is a difficult learning curve for surgeons when mastering MIS procedures. Increasing familiarity with MIS techniques creates more options for surgeons treating spine conditions with the potential to decrease surgical complications. The goal of this conference is to update neurological and orthopedic surgeons, as well as allied health professionals on the latest advances in MIS surgical techniques.
