Dr. Mark Gerber on the TOPS™ System: A Motion-Preserving Alternative to Spinal Fusion

This webinar featured Dr. Mark Gerber, a neurosurgeon from Naples, FL, discussing his experience with TOPS™ procedures for treating spondylolisthesis and stenosis. Dr. Gerber, who has been performing TOPS for nearly 6 years and has completed over 50 procedures, shared that his patients typically experience less pain and faster recovery compared to fusion patients. He explained that ideal candidates have single-level disease with spondylolisthesis or spinal stenosis and adequate disc space height, and discussed his approach to patient selection, including considerations around weight, age, and previous surgery history. The webinar concluded with a Q&A session where Dr. Gerber addressed questions about the procedure's biomechanics, durability, and specific patient scenarios.
The TOPS™ System (Total Posterior Spine System) is a motion-preserving spinal implant used to treat lumbar spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis. Instead of fusing the spine, it stabilizes the affected segment while allowing controlled movement, helping patients maintain mobility and reduce pain.
