3. INCISION AND GUIDE WIRE INSERTION Locate and make the first incision as defined in the incision planning step. The incision is approximately 14mm in length to match the diameter of the Phoenix Screw Body. (Fig. 3a) Insert the Pedicle Targeting Needle into the pedicle entry point and advance under AP fluoro to ensure that the Pedicle Targeting Needle is not medial to the medial border of the pedicle prior to the entrance into the vertebral body. Multiple Pedicle Targeting Needles can be placed in succession prior to switching to lateral fluoro to check superior/inferior angulation. (Fig. 3b)
Remove the inner stylet of the pedicle targeting needle. Insert the Guide Wire (20-0123, 20-0124) through the Pedicle Targeting Needle and place the Guide Wire into the mid portion of the vertebral body on the lateral view. (Fig. 3c)

4. PEDICLE PREPARATION: TISSUE DILATION AND PEDICLE TAPPING Assembly of Dilator/Awl/Tap Instrument Choose the appropriate diameter Tap, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 or 7.5mm (20-0145, 20-0155, 20-0165, 20-0175) based on surgeon preference and bone quality. Each Tap has a color band on the proximal end that corresponds the Tap diameter to the same color of the Screw. Assemble the T-Handle (52-1011) or a Straight Handle (52-1013) onto Tap. Next, assemble the Tap Sleeve Dilator (20-0275) onto the Tap until it lines up with the zero mark on the Tap. Advance the Tap Dilator until it engages the first groove on the Tap, this is your starting position for insertion into the incision. The Dilator will be retained in this position until the Release Button is depressed. A visual inspection is recommended to confirm the awl portion of the Tap thread is protruding through the tip of the Tap sleeve. (Fig. 4a)
NOTE: If pedicle screw monitoring is to be performed, there is a non-conductive dilator (20-0218) that should be placed over Dilator/Awl/ Tap instrument prior to use.

4. PEDICLE PREPARATION: TISSUE DILATION AND PEDICLE TAPPING CONT. Tissue Dilation Place Tap with assembled Dilator over the Guide Wire (Fig. 4b) and advance through the tissue using a twisting motion. (Fig. 4c) Once the Tap engages the bone, push the Release Button to allow the Tap Sleeve Dilator to move freely so the Awl and tapping can occur. (Fig. 4d) The Tap Sleeve Dilator has measurements to indicate the appropriate length of Phoenix Screw Bodies to be used. (Fig. 4e) Generally, the Short is used for the thoracic region and Standard and Long are used in the lumbar region based on patient size. Sometimes a longer size may be preferred in a longer construct to reach the anterolisthesed segment of a spondylolisthesis.
Skin Surface Level
It is ideal to have approximately 50% of the reduction head visible above the surface of the skin as indicated in the figure. (Fig. 4e) A Non-Conductive Dilator (20-0218) can be placed on the Tap Sleeve Dilator if stimulation of the Tap is desired. Fig. 4e
OPERATIVE TECHNIQUE
Fig. 4g
Fig. 4f
Awl The instrument has a sharp tip design functioning as a Bone Awl to perforate the pedicle bone so tapping can occur. Use a clockwise twisting motion to break through the cortex. (Fig. 4f) Tapping Continue a clockwise motion for tapping the bone while maintaining a straight trajectory to avoid bending the tap. (Fig. 4g) Use periodic fluoroscopy to check on depth and proper alignment. When the Tap is at the desired depth, the screw length is measured by reading the scale on the Tap. (Fig. 4h) The Dilator must be in contact with the pedicle bone surface to achieve accurate measurement. Remove the Tap Assembly leaving Guide Wire and Dilator (non-conductive) if desired behind.

5. MULTI-AXIAL SCREW PLACEMENT Implant Selection There are two Phoenix Body styles to accommodate different rod passing techniques. (Fig. 5a) The closed (magenta) Phoenix Bodies are only used at the end of a construct and are optional based on surgeon preference. The closed style can also be used to guide the Rod into place for mini-open techniques. The open (green) Phoenix Bodies are used in multi-level constructs and can also be used at the end of constructs based on surgeon preference. See Step 4 – The Dilator has measurements to indicate the appropriate length of Phoenix Bodies to be used. Generally, the Short is used for thoracic region and Standard and Tall are used for lumbar based on patient size. Sometimes a longer size may be preferred in a longer construct to reach the anterolisthesed segment of a spondylolisthesis. It is ideal to have approximately 50% of the reduction head visible above the surface of the skin. (Fig. 4e and 5b)

Screw Driver Assembly Attach the appropriate modular Phoenix Screw Body onto the desired Firebird® Modular Screw. Confirm a secure connection by pulling on the Screw. Insert the Screwdriver (20-0200) with either the Straight Handle (52-1013) or the T-Handle (52-1011) into Phoenix Screw Body and engage the tip of the Screwdriver with square of the Modular Screw. (Fig. 5c) Rotate the knob on a Screwdriver in a clockwise direction to assemble the Head of the Screw onto the Screwdriver Tip. (Fig. 5d) Confirm the Screw is solidly attached to the Screwdriver and do not overtighten. Using the Screwdriver, drive the Multi-Axial Screw of appropriate length over the Guide Wire into the prepared Pedicle. Remove the Guide Wire after the Screw enters the vertebral body. (Fig. 5e) Periodically check with fluoro to ensure proper Screw placement based on surgeon preference. Over-insertion of Screw may limit poly-axial motion of the Reduction Head. Once the Screw is seated to the appropriate level, turn the Knob in a counter-clockwise direction and remove the Screwdriver. (Fig. 5d)
NOTE: If for any reason the Phoenix Screw needs to be adjusted after the Screwdriver is removed, there is modular Multi-Axial Adjustment Screw Driver (20-0201) that mates with the Straight Handle (52-1013) to easily advance or withdraw the Screw. Place the remaining Screws using the same techniqueby repeating Steps 3 to 5. NOTE: Preparation of disc space may occur before or after Screw placement based on surgeon preference. NOTE: Optional sterile packed HA coated bone screws are available upon request.

6. ROD INSERTION – ROD LENGTH Determination
Rod Inserter Assembly
The Rod Sizing Tool (20-0205) is inserted into the most proximal and distal Phoenix Screw Body and the reading is taken from the markings on the scale. (Fig. 6a) This is a direct measurement and no additional numeric addition is necessary to determine proper length. Example: if the measurement tool reads 100mm, then select a 100mm Lordotic or Straight Hex Rod. Both ends of the Caliper must be inserted until they contact the screw head to ensure an accurate measurement. This technique works up to a maximum of 150mm. The option exists to cut and bend Rods as required.
Align the Hex end of the Rod with the Hex mating features of the Rod Holder (20-0214). Attach rod to holder to allow for insertion while maintaining the desired curvature of the rod. Firmly push the Hex into the Rod Inserter until it is fully seated. (Fig. 6b) Rotate the knob on the Inserter in a clockwise motion to draw the Rod upwards until the front surface of the tip aligns and is engaged in the undercut feature of the Rod. (Fig. 6c) This will prevent the Rod from becoming disengaged during insertion.
WARNING: Excessive or repeated bending of rods may reduce strength and result in construct failure.

Option: Creating a Tunnel for Rod
Percutaneous Rod Passing
The Tissue Dissector (20-0283) may be used to create a tunnel for passing the Rod into position. The distal tip of the Tissue Dissector is passed through the end of the construct with the hook facing up away from the spine. (Fig. 6d) Advance the instrument through each Phoenix Screw Saddle until it passes to the opposite end of the construct. Slowly pull the instrument back which will dissect the tissue with distal hook of the instrument.
This technique requires use of the open body for the end of the construct where the Rod is to be introduced. Align the openings of the Phoenix Bodies by hand to facilitate easy passing of the Rod. A Body Alignment Tool (20-0212) is available to align the openings if tissue or bone prevents positioning by hand. The leading tapered end of the Rod is passed through the open channel in the Phoenix Screw Body until it passes below the fascia and into the Screw Head. The Rod Inserter handle will be almost parallel to the patient during this phase of Rod passage. (Fig. 6e) When distal tip of Rod enters the Screw Head, begin to rotate the Rod Inserter handle which will push the Rod through to the adjacent levels. Once the Rod is seated, the Rod Inserter handle will be approximately perpendicular to the patient. (Fig. 6f) Excessive forces should not be required to pass the Rod through the tissue. If Rod passage is difficult, remove the Rod Inserter and utilize the tissue dissector (Fig. 6d). The Rod Pusher (20-0210) can be inserted down the Phoenix Screw Body to seat the Rod into position. (Fig. 6g)

ALTERNATIVE - HOOK ROD INSERTER Hook Rod Inserter (70-3208) can be used in mini-open procedures by attaching the hook to the rod, and dropping down between Phoenix Bodies. (Fig. 6h)
Fig. 7b
7. SET SCREW INSERTION AND ROD REDUCTION The Rod is brought into correct position and is stabilized with Rod Holder. The Set Screws are assembled onto the Set Screw Holders (20-0250, 20-0260) and held in place by depressing the button on the top of the handle. The Set Screws are inserted into each Phoenix Screw Body and are used to seat the Rod into the Impant Saddle. The Set Screw is fully seated when the Set Screw Holder’s corresponding laser mark (Short, Standard, Tall) reaches the top of the Screw Body. (Fig. 7a) The instrument set contains two long Set Screw Holders and one short Set Screw Holder. The two different lengths of Inserters allow for simultaneous tightening of the Set Screws in tight working spaces as shown in figure. The round handle design eliminates the issues with the interference of using T-Handles side-by-side. A/P and lateral fluoroscopic views can be used to ensure proper Rod positioning and the extent of reduction. (Fig. 7b) There are two Round Handles (20-0211) that can be placed on the existing set screw handle, if a larger grip surface is desired. They can also be used to provide greater force when reducing a spondylolisthesis.

7b. ALTERNATIVE STEP FOR TREATMENT OF SPONDYLOLISTHESIS: SET SCREW INSERTION AND ROD REDUCTION The built-in reduction capability is also useful for reducing a spondylolisthesis by first provisionally tightening one Set Screw followed by tightening of the anterolisthesed segment to establish deformity correction. Fully seat the set screws in the Phoenix Screw Bodies on either side of the vertebrae with the spondylolisthesis. Then insert the Set Screw on the vertebrae with spondylolisthesis. (Fig. 7c) Advancing the Screw provides the reduction force to align the vertebrae. Make sure the black lines on the set screw holder shaft indicate the set screw is fully seated. (Fig. 7d) There are two Round Handles (20-0211) that can be placed on the existing set screw handle, if a larger grip surface is desired. They can also be used to provide greater force when reducing a spondylolisthesis.

8. COMPRESSION/DISTRACTION Compression
Distraction
Slide the Torque Wrench Cannulas (20-0226) over each Phoenix Screw Body to which you are going to apply compression forces. Application of compression forces without use of the cannulas in not recommended. The slot in the end of the Cannula is aligned and engages the rod. Slide the Alignment Tool (70-3221) over the top of the cannulas and draw the cannulas together with either upward or downward force on the handle of the alignment tool. Alternative method – The compression/distraction fixture (20-0220) can be used in place of the alignment tool (70-3221). Adjust the fixture to the desired width and lock the adjustment nut on the fixture.
Slide the Torque Wrench Cannulas (20-0226) over each Phoenix Screw Body to which you are going to apply distraction forces. Application of distraction forces without use of the cannulas is not recommended. The slot in the end of the Cannula is aligned and engages the rod. Slide the compression/ distraction fixture (20-0220) over the top of the cannulas. Adjust the fixture to the desired width and lock the adjustment nut on the fixture. Assemble the distraction tips (left 70-3220 & right 70-3222) on distraction instrument (70-3219) and attach to the holes in the cannulas closest to the level of the skin. Distract the Cannulas to the desired level and proceed to final tightening of set screws. (Fig. 8b)
Attach the compression instrument (70-3218) to the holes in the cannulas closest to the level of the skin. Compress the Cannulas to the desired level and proceed to final tightening of Set Screws. (Fig. 8a)

9. FINAL TIGHTENING
10. TAB REMOVAL
The Torque Wrench Cannula slides over the Phoenix Screw Body and has two distal openings to engage the Rod. The Counter Torque Wrench Handle (20-0225) slides over the hex end of the Cannula. The Torque T-Handle (52-1512) attached to the Set Screw Driver (52-1061) is passed down the Phoenix Screw Body and mates with the Set Screw. ALTERNATIVE – When the use of compression or Distraction is not desired, then a one piece Counter Torque Wrench (20-0224) can be used in place of the modular instruments. Turn the Torque T-Handle (55-1068) clockwise to tighten the Set Screw to 100 in/lbs. The handle will reach its maximum torque and release at 100 in/lbs. (Fig. 9)
Position the three claws on the small end of the Implant Tab Removal Tool (20-0280) below one of the small tabs on the Phoenix Screw Body and use an upward motion to engage the claws of the tool onto the tab. Rotate the handle downward causing the small end to rotate up and the small tab will break free of the Phoenix Screw Body. Perform the same steps on the opposite side. (Fig. 10a) The small tabs can be discarded or recycled. Slide the large opening of the Implant Tab Removal tool over the large tab on one side of the Phoenix Screw. Move the handle away from the midline and then back to midline until the large tab dissociates from the Phoenix Screw Head. Perform the same steps on the remaining tab. (Fig. 10b) The larger tabs can be discarded or recycled.
11. REMOVAL PROCEDURE Removal of implants should be performed as outlined in the Firebird Spinal Fixation Operative Technique.
