Redefining Lumbar Fusion with CORUS-LX:

This video provides the essentials for Posterior Lumbar Fusion with CORUS-LX.
Expert surgeon insights on the critical role of facet joints in achieving successful fusion.
An overview of the CORUS-LX Navigation System and how it enhances precision and efficiency in the OR.
Real-world case studies and outcomes that demonstrate the clinical value of this approach.

What you'll learn

Traditionally, lumbar spine surgery has centered on interbody fusion and pedicle screw fixation. However, CORUS-LX introduces a paradigm shift—redirecting focus to the facet joints, an often underutilized yet critical structure for achieving fusion and stabilization.

This course will explore:

The limitations of conventional approaches like lumbar interbody fusion (LIF), particularly in high-risk patients with multilevel disease, comorbidities, or complex profiles.
Why, despite being the gold standard for treating degenerative disc disease (DDD), LIF often results in inconsistent fusion outcomes.
The role of minimally invasive pedicle screw fixation—and why it may not be sufficient on its own.
The emerging clinical evidence supporting facet-based fixation and how CORUS-LX is transforming treatment strategies in complex lumbar cases.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do most spine surgeons train on this technology?

Anatomical model training and surgical simulation are the most popular training modalities for spine surgeons and neurosurgeons and valued for their convenience. Both options allow for effective, hands-on training at your O.R. or office and make it easy to add training sessions to busy schedules.

Which patients may benefit from this technology and what are the criteria  for patient selection?

We specifically cover patient selection during training because spine surgeons are often curious about which patients are good candidates for this technology. Understanding the indications and contraindications for tissue-sparing posterior fusion is crucial for patient safety and optimal outcomes.

Indications for Use, CORUS™-LX LevelOne

A. CORUS SPINAL SYSTEM-LX:

The CORUS Spinal System-LX is a set of instruments indicated to be used to perform posterior lumbar fusion in patients with lumbar degenerative disc disease.

B. CORUS-LX IMPLANT:

CORUS-LX Implant is an integrated construct comprised of a CAVUX Cage-LX and an ALLY Bone Screw-LX. CORUS-LX Implant is placed bilaterally through a posterior surgical approach and spans the facet interspace with points of fixation at each end of the construct.

CORUS-LX Implant is intended to provide temporary stabilization as an adjunct to a 1 or 2 level interbody lumbar fusion with autogenous and/or allogenic bone graft and must be accompanied with an FDA cleared intervertebral body fusion device implanted at the same spinal level(s), and may be used with a pedicle screw and rod system implanted at the same spinal level(s).

CORUS-LX Implant is indicated for the treatment of patients with lumbar degenerative disc disease (DDD) from L4 to S1 in skeletally mature patients who have failed conservative care.

C. DiViNE DIRECT VISUALIZATION SYSTEM-LX:

The CORUS Spinal System-LX is a set of instruments indicated to be used to perform posterior lumbar fusion in patients with lumbar degenerative disc disease.
