Relief by the X-STOP® implant

X-STOP® implant

A gentle alternative to the common surgeries is the new X-STOP® implant. It is a kind of buffer, which is placed between the acanthas of the affected area. Now the X-STOP® implant prevents a to big bending of the lumbar spine which would cause a narrowing of the spinal channel.

Free of pain with the X-STOP® implant

The healthy spinal cord
The tissues of the disk cannot hold up the constant stress and penetrate in the spinal channel pinching the nerves.
The X-STOP® implant is placed between the acanthas to ensure a certain distance.

The spinal cord and the disks also become older. During the aging process, the spinal channel is narrowed by the the degenerated disks, which affects the function of the spinal nerves.

 

The degenerated tissue of the disks cannot withhold the continuous stress. It can penetrate the spinal channel and pinch these nerves. The patient can have a diffuse back pain, it also can be a numbness of the buttock and the legs, it also can lead to less stress resistance and overall weakness. It is typical the symptoms increase while stretching.

 

 

Conservative treatment

The symptoms only increase slowly. At the beginning, conservative treatments help as physiotherapy and medication. However, extended surgeries will be needed in an advanced stage. General anesthetic, a stay in the hospital of 5-7 days as well as a longer rehabilitation are needed.

A gentle alternative: the X-STOP® implant

The X-STOP® implant is a kind of buffer which is placed between the acanthas of the affected area. This prevents a to big bending of the lumbar spine and the spinal channel cannot be narrowed any longer. Also the degenerated tissue of the disk cannot penetrate the spinal channel so easily.

 

The patient is rested in a comfortable sideway position for this treatment. A small, narrow cut is performed at the affected area under local anesthetic and the X-STOP® implant is placed between the acanthas.

Quick rehabilitation

Many patients feel the relief right after the treatment. All patients can go home at the same day and will be dismissed from the hospital after 24 hours. Further treatments are only physiotherapy and rarely medication. Normally, patients can continue their normal habits after two to six weeks after the treatment.

Advantages

  • no general anesthetic
  • no big surgery
  • the rehabilitation after the treatment is comparably short
  • relatively inexpensive
  • the risk of general complications is low
