I’ve been watching the Dynesys saga unfold for many years now. I’m surprised that it hasn’t turned out to be better… it seemed like such a simple solution to a complex problem. I believe that our understanding of patient selection for Dynesys is still only half baked and hopefully will improve. I also believe that Dynesys success is VERY MUCH surgeon dependent. Some simply get way better than average results, while others get way worse than average results. Some have high percentages of screw problems, while others have NONE… both with and without HA coated screws.
There is a next generation system called DSS that I'll post more about in another thread.
