Deciding to have Spinal Stenosis Surgery?

There is now a better solution for stenosis than spinal fusion. With spinal fusion, you lose all motion at the operative segment. With the Refuse to Fuse™ surgical procedure, the surgeon removes the diseased elements of the spine that cause debilitating pain and suffering. Then the TOPS™ System—a motion device that recreates normal motion and keeps the entire spine moving—is implanted. The Refuse to Fuse™ Spine solution solves the symptoms of spinal stenosis without rigidly fixing your spine. Instead, you maintain your normal motion after surgery.
