 YODA® Dynamic Posterior Device
The dynamic posterior device YODA® is a completely new concept for the treatment of disc herniation and recurrent disc herniation. The implant is designed to adapt elastically to the anatomical movements, while improving the stability and rebalancing the spinal segment. YODA® is different from a simple spacer; its unique characteristics enable it to put the treated segment back under tension and open the foramen.
The surgical technique is a minimally invasive approach allowing the surgeon to insert the YODA® through a small unilateral incision.
Stabilising teeth are designed to anchor the implant between the spinous processes.
The YODA® dynamic posterior device is designed for surgeons who are looking for a completely new treatment method for the young patient population!

New LigaPASS, a unique ligament connector to perform derotation!
MEDICREA® introduces the LigaPASS connector. The LigaPASS is a unique, patented device designed to compliment Medicrea’s comprehensive Thoracic and Lumbar posterior fixation system PASS LP®, by providing an alternative anchorage point to the standard pedicle screw or vertebral claw in cases where the anatomy is not easily accessed – often due to deformities relating to scoliosis. The LigaPASS provides a solution to this problem by anchoring the rod construct using a ligament band passed through the posterior arch of the vertebra into a double-locking rod connector.The result is the creation of a hybrid construct using PASS LP’s robust polyaxial pedicle screws and self-stabilising claws alongside the LigaPASS, which offers what is widely accepted by surgeons to be an improved surgical correction with additional fixation points not possible without a ligament band option.
The LigaPASS is unique to competitive systems as it maintains the ability to achieve a 3D correction including vertebral derotation through the same method of Medicrea’s distinctive derotation technique currently achieved using the Clement Derotation Connector. PASS LP concep- tor, Dr Jean Luc Clement, a French paediatric deformity surgeon based at the Lenval Hospital in Nice collaborated with American paediatric deformity surgeon, Dr Afshin Aminian, of the Children’s Hospital of Orange County, California to design the LigaPASS with Medicrea’s innova- tive R&D team – all recognising Medicrea’s dedication to improve clinical outcomes and produce responsive, user-friendly systems.
