Laser Use in Orthopedics & Spine Microsurgical Solution for percutaneous pain management Intra-discal application on cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine Medial branch neurotomy for facet joints Lateral branch neurotomy for sacroiliac joints

During treatment with EVOLVE®, a small volume in a closed hydraulic space (nucleus pulposus) is being vaporized to achieve a reduction of intra-discal pressure (thermic ”shrinking effect“). The reduction in volume and pressure of the pathological disc induces the reduction of disc herniation and thus a reduction in nerve root compression. Furthermore, it leads to the denervation of the pain receptors (nociceptive nerves) of ingrowing nerves from dorsal ligament into annulus fibrosus. In addition to the above, pain causing facette joints can be treated in the same session to give an even better...
