Top 5 Trends in Spinal Surgery
1. Minimally Invasive Surgery: Minimally invasive spine surgery techniques are becoming increasingly popular as they can lead to faster recovery times and fewer complications. This trend is driving the development of smaller, more flexible implant designs. 2. Biologics: The use of biologic materials, such as growth factors and stem cells, is becoming more common in the spine implant industry. These materials can promote healing and reduce the risk of implant failure. 3. 3D Printing: 3D printing technology is also being used to create customized spinal implants. This allows for the rapid production of complex and patient-specific implant designs. 4. Artificial Disc Replacement: Artificial disc replacement is becoming a more popular alternative to spinal fusion surgery. These implants can provide a more natural range of motion and may have a lower risk of complications. 5. Robotics and Navigation: Robotics and navigation technology is being used to improve the accuracy and precision of spine implant surgeries. This can lead to better outcomes and reduce the risk of complications.
