The approach of the surgeon to the spine during surgery influences the type of Spine Surgery Devices used for the procedure. The three approaches are anterior (from the front of the spine), posterior (from the back of the spine), and lateral (from the side of the spine) (on the side of the spine). A vascular or general surgeon who can manipulate vessels and organs out of the way is required for the anterior approach to the thoracic and lumbar spine. The orthopaedic or neuro spinal surgeon can then operate on the spine. These vessels and organs are not in the path of the posterior or lateral spine when operating from the posterior or lateral approach. The anterior approach also requires additional retractors and vascular clamps that are not needed for posterior or lateral spinal cases, and the lateral approach uses minimally invasive instruments.
