AxiaLIF® - The Least Invasive Solution for Lumbar Fusion
Live webcast June 29, 2006 at 3:00 PM EDT (19:00 UTC) From Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH

Join Dr. Isador Lieberman from The Cleveland Clinic in a live surgery presentation of the AxiaLIF® system. The AxiaLIF® system is the least invasive solution to lumbar fusion, and dramatically reduces patient recovery time in comparison to traditional lumbar fusion procedures.

TranS1® has pioneered a revolutionary approach to access the lumbar spine. The AxiaLIF® system includes surgical instrumentation for creating a reproducible pre-sacral access route to the L5-S1 vertebral bodies. The AxiaLIF® system features instrumentation to enable standard of care fusion principles, distraction, and stabilization of the anterior lumbar column while mitigating the soft tissue trauma associated with traditional lumbar fusions through open surgical incisions.

"The para coccygeal axial approach to the spine as developed by TranS1® allows for what is unquestionably the least invasive access to the L5-S1 level of the spine," stated Isador Lieberman, M.D., Director of the Minimally Invasive Surgery Center at The Cleveland Clinic Foundation and Cleveland Clinic Spine Institute.

"I expect that this approach will foster multiple therapeutic modalities including fusion, disc replacement and biologic reconstitution of the degenerate spine."
