Product Overview
Percutaneous Decompression for Contained Disc Herniations
The SpineJet PercResector provides physicians with a percutaneous method for treating patients with contained disc herniations, thus avoiding the need for in-patient surgical intervention. The procedure is performed using a posterolateral approach through Kambin’s triangle, resulting in reduced trauma to muscles and ligaments.
The PercResector comes with a 4.0 mm cannulated access set to create a minimally invasive pathway to the disc space. The access set dilates the annular fibers, allowing them to shrink back into position after the procedure is completed, thus reducing the risk of reherniations.
This 30-minute procedure, performed in an outpatient setting using local anesthesia, allows patients with contained disc herniations to return home the same day without sutures.
Features & Benefits
• Simultaneously cuts and aspirates the nucleus, regardless of the patient’s age and disc hydration.
• Cannula access set provides smooth entry into the disc space, dilating, rather than cutting, annular fibers.
• Nonthermal fluid-based cutting action eliminates the risk of thermal tissue damage.
• Round atraumatic tip reduces the risk of annular puncture and endplate damage.
• Removes a precise, predictable amount of nucleus to decompress the nerve root.
• Performed in an outpatient setting in under 30 minutes, allowing patients to return home the same day.
