Dr. Clavel has taken a look at all of my MRIs, CTs, Xrays and is suggesting a 2 level BalanC surgery vs. adr..
I was surprised and now researching this device and technique. I think that because of the damage to facets, instability, ossifications on the backside, and crazy bone spurs on the Superoir Articular at two levels he is suggesting this rod/fusion at L4L5 with flexible deal extending up to L3L4...
Does anyone have any experience with the BalanC system? I am currently working on getting a video consult scheduled to discuss a few things with Dr. Clavel.
Thanks All, Ken
