Dr Kasra Rowshan, based in South California (USA), successfully performed the world first 4 levels MIS percutaneous construct without K-wire using Spineart’s system. Spineart reached a new milestone in Minimally Invasive spine surgery by providing the world first minimally invasive K-wireless spinal fixation system, ROMEO®2MIS. The option to operate without K-wire is aimed at improving the procedural safety and efficiency while reducing patients infection risks as well as staff radiation exposure. The ROMEO®2MIS offers the option for the surgeon to follow a mini-open or percutaneous approach. All implants are sterile packed and bar-coded for increased safety and cost-efficiency.

This new posterior fixation system completes the ROMEO®2 range and is designed to enable thoracic and iliac fixations thanks to its unique streamlined tip screw design, offering various suitable diameters, and a large range of hooks. Rod connectors as well as rods existing in different types of material are available. They are designed to answer the needs for traumatologic, tumors and scoliotic treatments.

With its new ROMEO®2 MIS system, Spineart has achieved a new milestone in minimally invasive spine surgery by offering surgeons the worldwide first minimally invasive « K-wireless » spinal fixation system. The unique « K-wireless » feature is based on the streamlined tip of the pedicle screw, designed to allow an effortless and self-centering insertion of the screw into the pedicle canal.
The opportunity to remove the K-wires from the surgery is designed to predict favorably for marked improvements in procedural efficiency, infection risk, and radiation exposure.
The ROMEO®2 MIS system furthermore includes a unique screw or blade based M.I.S. retractor system not requiring any table attachment, as well as the possibility to reduce spondylolisthesis bilaterally, progressively and accurately.
