360° Stabilization, Fusion with Soft Tissue Preservation
AxiaLIF®, combined with Facet Screws, provides a truly percutaneous 360-degree fusion at L5-S1.
Stability
AxiaLIF® 360° provides stability comparable to pedicle fixation*
- Successful fixation across facet joints
- Exceptional axial strength of the 3D Axial Rod™ combined with the added stability of facet screws
Truly Percutaneous
- No muscle stripping
- Less post-operative pain
- Less morbidity and blood loss compared to pedicle screws
- Atraumatic access to facet joints
- Least invasive 360-degree fusion option for Degenerative Disc Disease at L5-S1

Ease of Use
- 360-degree fusion typically performed in less than 90 minutes
- All procedural components fit conveniently on a mayo stand
- Entire procedure performed over a wire
