Transforaminal Endoscopic Surgical System
The standard instrument set contains the complete set of instruments (e.g. grasping, cutting and Endo-Kerrison punches) for safe minimally invasive access to the spinal canal and the removal of disc tissue, bone spurs or scar tissue.
The guiding rods and tubes are color-coded to simplify handling. Access to the pathology is achieved by gradual dilatation of the soft tissue under X-ray control. Dilation of the intervertebral foramen in the Kambin triangle is also performed in stages, either using color-coded crown reamers or bone drills (foraminotomy).
TESSYS® TransSAP is the fourth and newest member of the TESSYS® family. With its more comprehensive and efficient decompressions it complements the versatile TESSYS® Std, the TESSYS® XT with extended reach and the thoracic specific TESSYS® Thx.
The TransSAP method follows an adapted approach to the spine and targets the superior articular process directly. This enables more extensive foraminal decompression. As a result, it also provides the optimal basis for transforaminal endoscopic fusion.
According to the Wooridul Group
The differently shaped vertebrae and the spatial restrictions imposed by the ribs and the pleura present the surgeon with particular challenges when treating thoracic stenoses and herniated discs.
The TESSYS® Thx instrument set is suitable for these challenges, especially for central and paramedian stenoses and herniated discs.
The narrower endoscope shaft enables use in confined spaces and the larger optical angle offers an excellent view of all structures in the surgical field.
The main difference between the XT version and the standard set is the longer working length of the XT version’s endoscope and working tubes.
Due to the longer reach, it is also possible to treat very adipose patients.
