Percutaneous pedicle screw fixation.
EU MDR
ARES is a minimally invasive posterior thoracolumbar system for percutaneous pedicle screw fixation. Its cannulated polyaxial screws come with dual-lead or quad-lead threads. They are placed over a guide wire through extension sleeves that dock onto the screw head. The same sleeves act as reduction towers, so the rod is passed and persuaded down through the working channel.
Each screw is assembled to its sleeve with the markings aligned until a click confirms that the springs have reset. The sleeve stays on through screw insertion, rod placement and locking, and an unlocking device releases it at the end of the procedure.
The cannulated polyaxial screws come with dual-lead or quad-lead thread.
Modular sleeves with reduction allow the rod to be persuaded down through the sleeves instead of through an open exposure. The central scale on the final-locking driver shows when the rod is fully seated: the scale line meets the top edge of the sleeve.
Straight and pre-curved rods are offered, and the dedicated rod bender holds the rod in one plane so that it does not twist if reshaping is needed. A parallel connector links two sleeves for compression and distraction.
ARES can also be used in open surgery, so a case that starts through the sleeves can be finished on the same system.
