-
Replace disks adjacent to fused segment with flexible rods (maintaining flexibility while avoiding friction and pain)
-
Natural
Ringed stabilizing rods that you can non invasively control the rigidity of rods (Connect more rings = increase rigidity and Vice versa)

Computational
Simulation for Surgery
Using Software such as Solid Works to inform surgeon on best placements of rod, graft amount, Screw length etc to avoid ASD
