LnK MIS System for minimally invasive posterior rod and screw fixation. It is designed to minimize soft tissue trauma by using a transmuscular approach and subfascial rod insertion. Patient benefits from the reduced trauma by less pain, shorter hospitalization and shortened recovery time.
LnK MIS System is based on wire guided insertion of cannulated polyaxial long sleeve screws and sleeve guided rod insertion through the same incision.The instruments provide the surgeon with tactile feedback and have built in safety mechanisms.The logical flow of the surgery guarantees for efficients and excellent results
Features:
Cannulated Poly Axial Screw Consists of three components: the screw shank, the tulip portion of the screw, and pressure valve. The screw shank has a combine thread type that the core is conical upper region and cylindrical lower region and cylindrical out thread. Long sleeve cannulated screw with 30mm extra long thread can make easy reduction of rod with less invasive surgery. Unique thread pitch offers improved pullout strength in the vertebral body. 360˚ total angulation. A pressure valve within the tulip head lock the Poly Axial Screw into a Fixed Angle Screw when toque with a Set Screw. This also maintains a friction fit allowing the tulip to remain in place during Rod and Set Screw application.
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.
