Dynesys Surgery

The Dynesys Dynamic Stabilization System is a new type of surgical treatment of lower back and legDynesys Dynamic Stabilization System pain. This uses flexible materials in comparison with traditional fusion to stabilize the spine.

The Dynesys System is a pedicle-screw fixation system, an implant device consisting of a spacer, cord and pedicle screw. This is a unique way to stabilize and mobilize the spine and get pain relief. It relies on flexible materials and preserves much of the spinal anatomy.

The System supports an intervertebral joint during rest, Flexion and ExtensionThe system can be used in skeletally mature patients to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments. This is used as an addition to fusion in order to treat degenerative slipped discs (spondylolisthesis) in the thoracic, lumbar or sacral regions when there is evidence of resulting neurologic impairment or in the case of a previous failed fusion (pseudarthrosis).

BRIEF ABOUT THE PROCEDURE

The Dynesys System is compatible with conventional surgical techniques and in some cases can be implanted using a minimally invasive approach. On average, the procedure to implant takes two to three hours.

Portions of the affected disc(s) and bone are removed from the spine after which the Dynesys System is attached to the pedicle on each side of the affected vertebrae. A dynamic push-pull relationship is established that stabilizes the affected joints and keeps the vertebrae in the natural position. The surgeon usually uses bone as material to promote the fusion.

The pain resulting from the surgery would be there for several weeks. An almost immediate relief of any leg pain can be noted though relief from back pain should diminish over time as nerves are no longer compressed. A brief hospital stay of 3 to 4 days is recommended.

SOME ASSOCIATED RISKS
  • Reactions to anesthesia and associated drugs
  • Infection
  • Bleeding blood vessel damage
  • Bruise (hematoma)
  • Pneumonia
  • Blood clots
  • Wound closure problems

Potential risks associated with the implantation of the Dynesys System are similar to those associated with any spinal fusion procedure and those risks specific to the implantation of other pedicle-screw systems. They may include:

  • Tear in the outer lining of the spinal cord which may result in spinal fluid leakage
  • Temporary decreased or absent intestinal function
  • Implant migration
  • Leg pain
  • Nerve complications
  • Fractured sacrum
