How about so less invasive that there is no skin penetration?
Leave it to our good buddies the back surgeons working no doubt in “consultation” with manufacturers to come up with this gem. AxiaLIF. Combined with pedicle screws or facet screws provides a completely percutaneous 360–degree fusion at L5–S1 according to their website.
Unfortunately, ABC News in attempt to ruin a lot of spine’s Thanksgiving, is even in the act publishing this article which reports to getting “patients back on the feet in record time”.
Perhaps AxiLIF can go AWOL JIT for the holidays.
