This document discusses a lumbar interspinous anchor device for posterior lumbar fusion as an alternative to pedicle screws. The device has comparable biomechanics to pedicle screws based on one study. A second study showed a 94% fusion rate in an elderly patient cohort. A third poster presentation found reduced operative time, hospital stay, and recovery time compared to pedicle screws in a single level fusion procedure. The document promotes the interspinous anchor device as a market leading option for posterior lumbar fusion that has been implanted over 30,000 times globally.
