The DISCOVERY® Facet Screw Fixation System is intended to stabilize the spine as an aid to fusion by two different fixation methods:
Transfacet fixation - The screws are inserted bilaterally through the superior side of the facet, across the facet joint and into the inferior pedicle.
Translaminar-facet fixation - The screws are inserted bilaterally through the lateral aspect of the spinous process, through the lamina, through the superior side of the facet, across the facet joint and into the inferior pedicle.
