| Congratulations to Mr. Prokopis Annis at The Walton Centre in Liverpool, UK, on performing the single-position lateral surgery with ExcelsiusGPS™ in the UK since COVID-19.
The case involved an L4-5 robotic-assisted oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) using the RISE™-L spacer, followed by navigated placement of CREO MIS™ pedicle screw fixation at L4-5 in the lateral position.
Mr. Annis commented, “Using ExcelsiusGPS™ planning to support a single-position approach helped transform what would normally be a two-stage procedure into one efficient surgery. Eliminating the need to flip the patient reduced operating time and contributed to excellent patient care.”
This milestone marks an exciting next step in The Walton Centre’s continued commitment to innovation and surgical excellence.
