NuVasive
NuVasive was founded on a commitment to develop better surgical solutions for spine patients. NuVasive® is best known for its development of the XLIF® procedure. By accessing the spine from the side of the body, XLIF eliminates the debilitating effects of cutting back muscles, removing bone, and retracting the neural elements that are typically experienced after a conventional posterior surgical approach (PLIF). Additionally, XLIF avoids retraction of internal organs and major blood vessels as is necessary in the conventional anterior surgical approach (ALIF) to reach the spine. XLIF is a safe and reproducible approach with minimal disruption, making post-op recovery easier for the patient. Today, NuVasive continues to revolutionize minimally disruptive surgical solutions, allowing surgeons to treat spine conditions while minimizing the surgical trauma experienced. NuVasive procedures have consistently garnered exceptional results – shorter surgical times, less tissue damage, less blood loss, quicker release from the hospital, and a more rapid return to normal activities.
