The
SpineJet MicroDiscectomy family of MicroResectors includes an array of straight and bayoneted shafts specifically designed for open discectomy. The streamlined MicroDiscectomy Access Set allows the surgeon to safely decompress the nerve root with minimal nerve root retraction.
Experience the benefits of the MicroResector MicroDiscectomy line:
Safe
- Significantly reduces instrument passes in and out of the disc space
- Decompresses with minimal nerve root manipulation
- Cannula protects nerve root from inadvertent injury
Fast
- Quickly and efficiently removes nucleus
- Eliminates the need for additional instruments
Effective
- Removes optimal amount of nucleus to decompress the nerve root
- Minimal annulotomy reduces the risk of reherniation*
- Reduced nerve root manipulation decreases post-operative radicular pain secondary to neurofibrosis **
