Wenzel Spine Announces First Awake Spinal Fusion Using VariLift-LX

Wenzel Spine announced the first awake spinal fusion procedure using the VariLift-LX interbody implant. The Less Invasive Spine Surgery (LISS) was performed without general anesthesia.

VariLift-LX is reportedly the only FDA-cleared stand-alone lumbar interbody fusion implant on the market that can be implanted without the need for supplemental fixation such as pedicle screw instrumentation. This expandable, low-profile device offers a LISS or MIS alternative for patients suffering from symptomatic grade 1 spondylolisthesis, degenerative disc disease or adjacent segment disease.
