EndoSurg Max System
The EndoSurg Max System is unintech‘s mostly commonly used full-endoscopic system for posterior decompression at cervical and lumbar spine. With the instrument set EndoPLIF the EndoSurg Max system is used for preparation the disc space for posterior lumbar interbody fusion.
- Access: interlaminar & posterior
- Indications: dorsal and lateral pathologies, e.g. herniations, spinal canal stenosis
- Field of application: lumbar and cervical
System information
The system consists of instruments clearly arranged in a double tray and the endoscope safely stored in a tray, which also has space for the endoscopic light guide.
The set contains all instruments (approx. 25), that are required as standard for endoscopic surgery, e.g. dilators, working tubes, various forceps, chisels, nerve hook, elevator, etc. They are optimally adapted to the procedure and the endoscope in terms of length, diameter and design.
| EndoSurg Max Endoscope | |
|---|---|
| Working length | 125 mm |
| Outer diameter shaft | 10.0 mm |
| Diameter working channel | 6.0 mm |
| Optic angle | 15° |
Principal steps of the procedure
Endoscopic pictures show cervical posterior approach (PECD)
Access to the target are after serial dilation.
Exposing the target area (V-Point) and identifying the intact and untreated bony structures.
Widening the access with electrical burr.
Identifying the neural structures after laminotomy.
Removing herniation.
Free neural structures
– end of the procedure.
Specific instruments for lumbar or cervical treatment
Inserted into the endoscope working channel
Stabilizing tube to keep the electric drills central and to avoid damage to the endoscope.
Working tube with long lip for a safe approach to ventral or lateral pathologies.
Endoscopic reamer for removing bone spurs or open the annulus.
EndoSurg Max instruments for decompression
- Nerve hook and disector – curved and straigt for palpation
- Bone chisel, curette and endoscopic reamer for boney treatment, e. g. osteophytes
- Kerrison punches with rotatable shafts – straight and curved
- Ligament punch – unique design for cutting Ligamentum flavum
- Forceps available with different tips and in different sizes, resilient and durable due to the new and patented functional mechanism.
