What's New Session: Moving Spine (Non-CME)

Beyond Fusion: Vertebropexy and the Rise of Smart Stabilization

This session explores the rationale for smart segmental stabilization beyond traditional fusion, integrating both biomechanical and clinical perspectives. Contemporary biomechanical data and animal models show that smart stabilization can preserve segmental motion while reducing adjacent-level stress, challenging the long-standing binary of decompression versus fusion.

This session will discuss the scientific foundation, clinical need and translational potential of vertebropexy as a new modality in the continuum of spine care.
