Adam Lewis, MD, is the first in Mississippi to use Expanding Orthopedics' FLXfit 3D Expandable Cage.
Here are five highlights:
1. Dr. Lewis uses the FLXfit 3D to perform minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusions.
2. He commented the cage has a "unique articulation feature, allowing me to place a traditional linear shape cage through a tube and achieve an ALIF like footprint."
3. The FLXfit 3D allows him to reach up to 15 degrees of lordosis.
4. He founded the Jackson (Miss.) Neurosurgery Clinic.
5. Dr. Lewis completed his residency at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.
"The FLXfit family of expanding TLIF cages are ideal for MIS fusion surgery as they enable a best in class expandable cage through a small tube. The unique articulation feature allows me to place a traditional linear shape cage through a tube and achieve an ALIF like footprint. This minimizes blood loss and surgical trauma while offering the best possible outcome," said Dr. Lewis.
