DiscoGel Injection for Spine Disc Herniation


Discogel is a safe and innovative solution for the treatment of spine disc herniation. A minimally invasive solution for the treatment of cervical, thoracic, and lumbar herniated discs under local anaesthesia.

Discogel is a minimally invasive procedure for discopathy (otherwise known as slipped, prolapsed, bulging or herniated disc) results in an immediate pain reduction up to 80% on the following day in a vast majority of patients, with almost 90% success rate.







MECHANISM OF ACTION

DiscoGel@ is a radiopaque gel implant, injected percutaneously into the nucleus pulposus.

Reduces the hyperpressure within the intradical space

  • Ethanol in the DiscoGel induces water migration from the peripheral to the centre of the disc.
  • Micronized Tungsten allows the visualization of the gel progression under the fluoroscopic control where the injection flow can be observed.

Reduces the inflammation produced by the annular tears

  • Cellulose has an osmotic effect.
  • Combined with Micronized Tungsten, DiscoGel8 forms into a soft "metallic sponge" prothesis in the disc fissures when in contact with water that makes a physical barrier inside the disc.
  • This seals any annular tears / cracks in the disc
  • The physical barrier blocks the any pro-inflammatorymolecules that generate pain in the disc.
