Amplify Surgical saw positive results in a clinical study for its DualPortal endoscopic technique.
DualPortal is a two-portal technique that helps surgeons perform a variety of lumbar spine procedures.
Researchers analyzed 3,673 cases that used the technique for decompressions, discectomies and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusions. The study concluded dualPortal was safe and had favorable outcomes and a low complication profile.
The investigators anticipated a greater demand for dualPortal surgeries from physicians and patients, according to an April 28 news release.
The study, published in the European Spine Journal, was led by Don Park, MD, vice chair of quality and safety in the department of orthopedic surgery at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine in Los Angeles.
