St. Albans, UK – Axis Spine Technologies has presented on stage at the Spine: Base to Summit winter meeting in Vail, CO, 12-15 January 2024. 

Dr. A.J. Rush, MD, of Texas Spine Consultants (Dallas TX), delivered an insightful talk on “The Impact of Cage Design on Spinal Alignment.” 

He highlighted the common dilemma surgeons face when using one-piece anterior lumbar interbody fusion(ALIF) cages: choosing between foraminal height restoration and spinal realignment. He concluded that with a modular ALIF cage, surgeons can achieve both. This innovative design allows for effective foraminal height restoration and precise alignment without sacrificing implant footprint or bone contact.
