RealSpine Lumbar Anterior-Lateral

ALIF and OLIF simulator in a single piece, L3 to S1, with the layered abdominal wall and the great vessels between the surgeon and the disc.

Present

Overview

ALIF and OLIF reach the same disc by different paths, and both run past what must not be touched. In front sit the aorta, the inferior vena cava and, at L5-S1, the iliac bifurcation, which is what decides, patient by patient, whether the anterior route is viable.

Lumbar Anterior-Lateral brings both approaches in one piece, from L3 to S1. The abdominal wall is genuinely layered: Camper's fascia, external oblique, internal oblique, transversus, rectus abdominis and Scarpa's fascia. Behind it, the peritoneum, the peritoneal fat, the ureter, the psoas and the iliacus.

The great vessels and the peritoneum are separate modules. That matters to the training budget: what gets discarded is what was used, not the whole assembly.

What the product brings

  • Two approaches in a single piece: ALIF, through the midline, and OLIF, oblique. A service does not need two models to train both.
  • Aorta, inferior vena cava and middle sacral artery in place. At L5-S1 it is precisely the bifurcation that decides whether the anterior route is possible in that patient.
  • Complete layered abdominal wall: Camper's fascia, external oblique, internal oblique, transversus, rectus abdominis and Scarpa's fascia.
  • Peritoneum and ureter in their own modules, because those are what retraction can injure.
  • Reusable case and base: the disposable part is the anatomical modules.
