Dynesys® Dynamic Stabilization System: A Guide for Patients

The Dynesys Dynamic Stabilization System is a new concept in the surgical treatment of lower back and leg pain -- one that uses flexible materials to stabilize the spine and offers another approach to traditional fusion.

If your doctor has recommended fusion surgery, the Dynesys System may be an option. It can help provide added stability and keep the vertebrae in a more natural position than can be achieved with conventional surgery alone.
