Therapeutic Indications
  • Low back pain, unilateral or bilateral, with or without leg pain that has been determined to be discogenic in origin. This includes herniated discs, chronic degenerative discs and internal disc derangement.
  • Patients with neurologic deficits are considered candidates.
  • Post surgical (laminectomy, discectomy) and fusion patients are candidates. VAX-D may be undertaken when the extent of surgical excision has not compromised the vertebral articulations and/or ligamentous structures.
