Spinal Elements announced that it will be featuring its Karma device to treat degenerative spondylolisthesis with stenosis in the aging spine will be featured at this week’s North American Spine Society (NASS) annual meeting.
A live surgical demonstration and presentation, “Novel Posterior Cortico-Pedicular Fixation in the Aging Spine” will be presented at the NASS Surgical Stadium in the Exhibit Hall, where attendees can learn about the benefits of this novel solution for treating degenerative spondylolisthesis with stenosis in the aging spine. Hands-on demonstrations will take place at Spinal Elements’ booth as well.
Karma consists of a polymer fixation device to stabilize the lumbar spine as an adjunct to fusions. Designed to engage the strongest bony elements of the posterior lumbar spine, it is radiolucent with the exception of a blended contrast medium.
It can be implanted through open or minimally invasive techniques.
Ron Lloyd, CEO of Spinal Elements, told the press, “Karma represents a major milestone in our journey to redefine spine surgery, and we are excited to share this latest technology at NASS. The new application of Karma in the Aging Spine represents a major milestone in our journey to continually bring innovative solutions and technologies to improve patient outcomes in spine surgery.”
