Every LSS patient is different.
So why are we still treating
them all the same way?
For decades, we've been treating lumbar spinal stenosis
cases with the same binary approach: decompression for
those patients with mild to moderate disease severity, and
decompression with some form of fusion for more severe cases.
But there's a whole universe of patients who need a treatment
solution that sits somewhere in the middle of those pathways.
These are patients with moderate to severe stenosis, but without
the gross instability that necessitates the permanence of fusion.
It's time to consider coflex
®
Interlaminar Stabilization
®
for these
patients. It's a treatment solution that enables you to perform
a more extensive surgical decompression (up to 50% bilateral
partial medial facetectomies), without the need for fusion, while
immediately and sustainably preserving the clinical benefit of your
decompression. With reduced blood loss and recovery time, it's a
smart fit for any surgical environment.
Good for your patients. Good for you. And now, with coding
clarity from the AMA, it's good for the back office, too.
