How AxiaLIF is Performed
The surgeon accesses your low back through a 1-inch incision next to your
tailbone. The
center of the diseased disc is removed, and bone growth material is inserted in
its place.
This material helps stimulate bone growth over time in order to "fuse."
The AxiaLIF implant is inserted to distract the two vertebrae, meaning that any
height lost
from Degenerative Disc Disease is restored to its original, healthy disc height.
Your physician may or may not add posterior hardware for further stabilization
of your
spine after the AxiaLIF procedure has been performed.
What About Recovery?
The procedure is minimally invasive, so the scars are very small and the
procedure carries
less risks than a traditional "open" surgery. AxiaLIF does not cut through
important tissue
or nerves; therefore, the healing process is quicker and there is less
post-operative pain
commonly associated with traditional fusion surgery.
The AxiaLIF procedure time is about 45 minutes on average, and patients have
been
released from the hospital in as little as 24 hours, returning to work in as
little as 15 days.
