Here are five highlights:
1. A muscle-splitting system, the Katana Lateral System is intended to avoid challenges associated with MIS lateral surgery.
2. With the system, a surgeon utilizes a posterior-forward approach accessing in the plane of the muscle, avoiding muscle entrapment.
3. The system also aims to avoid nerve compression complications.
4. The Katana Lateral System includes implants featuring Spinal Elements' Ti-Bone titanium surface technology, which offers radioulucent properties. This feature allows intraoperative monitoring of implant position and postoperative assessment of fusion progress.
