Dynamic stabilization of the lumbar spine using the dynesys system
2019
AIM: To present the clinical results in patients with minor instability with Dynesys(R) a soft spinal stabilization system. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 83 patients were operated upon and the Dynesys(R) system was applied. Indications for surgery included painful degenerative disc disease, degenerative spondylolisthesis and lumbar canal stenosis. RESULTS: The results for the Dynesys(R) system were satisfactory, and we have calculated the overall complication rate to be 20.4% (n=17), which is in agreement with the literature. CONCLUSION: The Dynesys(R) dynamic stabilization system effectively protects lumbar motion and achieves lumbar stability in patients with lumbar spinal problems. Our clinical result support literature that Dynesys(R) system is a strong alternative to fusion and instrumentation system in patient with chronic instabilities.
