MENIMED Medical

Millions of people worldwide suffer from chronic, symptomatic back pain, and in the USA alone hundreds of thousands of spinal surgeries are performed each year. Studies show that the incidence of spinal disorders is on the rise. Minimally invasive surgical techniques are the fastest growing segment within the spinal surgery market. For patients, minimally invasive spine surgery may reduce post-operative pain and contribute to shorter recovery time and less long-term damage. While other existing retractors used to access and maintain visualization of the surgical site still cause significant paraspinal tissues (PST) damage, Meni-Med's unique retractor aims to reduce such damage and therefore result in less post-operative pain, the patient's quick return to normal daily activity and less long-term damage. Moreover, the use of Meni-Med's retractor results in shorter surgery times and facilitates the delicate yet arduous work of the surgeons in various respects; From the minor incision and controlled access to the surgical site, through multi-level access in different spinal anatomies, with illuminated optimal visibility, recording capabilities (beneficial also for teaching and legal purposes) and radiolucent abilities, to the convenient removal and disposal of the device.
