    Default New trans one l4-s1 fusion

    Man these guys are getting good lol. Products : AxiaLIF 2L : Minimally invasive access the lumbar spine . I wonder in the future if they could do the whole spine through this approachwith some type of wire throughout for support and to hold spine in place with propper curve etc. You would think they could develop some type of adr that could be implanted this way.
    Riding 4 wheeler and playing basketball. Collide with guy in mid air and I hit concrete on one leg and then fall down. Wake up in pain cant move for few hours, fine few days later. Back never the same.

    Thats a really interesting way of doing this. I wish they had a video to watch for doing a 2 level instead of just the one level. Still pretty cool. Now I couldnt wait any longer for my 2 level ALIF but hopefully if by some strange chance I need future spine surgery, methods like this will be the standard and I can capitalize off of them. Thanks for the info....super cool!
