Minimally-invasive method for performing spinal fusion and bone graft capsule for facilitating the same

摘要

A method for performing a spinal fusion procedure between the transverse processes of two adjacent vertebra is disclosed. The method includes creating a vascularized bone flap at each of the transverse processes and introducing a bone graft delivery device to the site between the transverse processes and the vascularized bone grafts. A novel bone graft delivery system and device is also disclosed.
