The CoreSpine XTEND-ST Nucleus Removal System is a soft tissue removal device that is comprised of a disposable, sterile handheid nucleus tissue cutting device, a table-top electronic control unit, and a foot pedal. The tip of the XTEND-ST cutting device can articulate and extend within the disc cavity providing an ability to reach areas of the disc that are otherwise unreachable with a rongeur. Cut tissue is continuously suctioned through a central lumen using a standard vacuum designed to minimize clogging. The XTEND-ST Nucleus Removal System is intended to effectively and efficiently prepare the disc space without damaging the annulus or endplates in preparation for a spinal implant or other therapy. The XTEND-ST cutting device is made from a stainless steel rotary cutting mechanism with a motor housed in a plastic handle.
