The procedures were anterior cervical discectomy and fusions, according to a Jan. 25 news release. Apollo comes with streamlined instrumentation and is designed to preserve a patient’s skeletal and muscle tissue.

“I performed three consecutive cases in one day and found the ergonomics, workflow and implants to be excellent,” Dr. Koga said in the news release. “I found the plate lordosis, thickness and sizing to be anatomically perfect. A major improvement is the control of screw direction in high-angled screws.”

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
