dualPortal Endoscopic Approach
The dualPortal solution is a novel two-portal endoscopic approach to the spine that allows surgeons to easily learn and perform wider array of lumbar spine procedures than the conventional one-portal technique. dualPortal is a versatile and powerful technique in which the decoupling of the endoscopic camera from the surgical instruments allows for greater flexibility and enhanced visualization of spinal anatomy. It also provides flexibility to perform endoscopic lumbar fusions with dualX Dual Expanding Interbody Fusion System.
