AxiaLIF® +
Evolution of the Art
The AxiaLIF+ System reflects TranS1’s commitment to a culture of continuous improvement. A passionate team of engineers, designers, and surgeons drew on the experience gained in over 12,000 surgeries to create our next generation presacral fusion system. Every step of the presacral procedure – Access, Discectomy, Grafting, Distraction, and Stabilization – was examined in detail for areas of refinement. The end result is a comprehensively redesigned system with a host of feature enhancements aimed at improving product performance and patient outcomes.
Dial In Distraction
The new internal distraction rod in AxiaLIF+ lets surgeons individualize distraction in situ based on each patient’s needs. This highly adjustable distraction is achieved as the internal rod is advanced between robust, static bone anchors.
Shaped for Success
Every dimension of every component was scrutinized in a quest for optimization. The bone-engagement surfaces on the superior aspect of the implants received a full taper design in which each revolution cuts new, larger threads in the endplate. The diameter of the two-level’s L4 segment was increased to match that of the L5 segment, thus maximizing the area for bone engagement.
Accuracy is Everything
Any implant is only as good as its placement. That’s why the new AxiaLIF+ trial lets you see exactly where implants will be positioned while allowing precise, in situ sizing. This recently developed trial design also allows surgeons to combine bony dilation with measurement, adding to the efficiency of an already elegant surgery.
Indications for use: TranS1 AxiaLIF System is intended to provide anterior stabilization of the L5-S1 or L4-S1 spinal segment (s) as an adjunct to spinal fusion. The System is indicated for patients requiring fusion to treat pseudoarthrosis (unsuccessful previous fusion), spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis (Grade 1 or 2 if single-level; Grade 1 if two-level), or degenerative disc disease as defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Its usage is limited to anterior supplemental fixation of the lumbar spine at L5-S1 or L4-S1 in conjunction with use of legally marketed posterior fixation such as facet screw or pedicle screw systems at the same levels that are treated with system.
