VENUS® Extension
The use of screw-rod systems often results in corresponding damage to adjacent vertebrae segments postoperatively over the course of time. Consequently, follow-up operations, in which the existing interventions have to be extended to one or more adjoining vertebrae segments, are frequently unavoidable.
Depending on the current level of technology, usually the only option available is to completely replace existing systems in the case of such operations.
Complete renewal of the system entails significant physical strain for the patient as a result of these procedures. This not least because a double strain on the segments already affected can also occur. The VENUS® Extension System has been developed to solve these problems. The associated revision connectors permit a minimally invasive approach in the case of joint degenerations.
