  • Patent number: 11911079
    Abstract: A spinal implant comprises at least one bone fastener including a proximal portion configured for fixation with a first anterior cortical surface of a vertebra and a distal portion configured for fixation with a second cortical surface of the vertebra. The proximal portion is engageable with a surgical driver having a surgical navigation component that generates data for display of an image representing position of the spinal implant relative to the vertebra. The spinal implant can be employed with cervical, thoracic, lumbar and/or sacral regions of a spine. Systems, surgical instruments and methods are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 7959655
    Abstract: The present application is directed to a device for connecting an elongated member within a patient. The device includes a body with a receiving section to receive the elongated member, and an engagement section to engage a support structure, such as a vertebral member. The receiving section is sized to receive the elongated member in a first orientation. The process of securing the elongated member within the receiving section causes the device to pivot about the elongated member to a second orientation. This pivoting motion causes the engagement section to more securely attach to the support structure.

  • Publication number: 20090076549
    Abstract: A system is provided for use in orthopedic surgery, for example to connect a spinal rod with a vertebral screw or hook. The system generally includes a receiver member for receiving an elongated member, a bone implant member, such as a bone screw, and a locking washer to assist in locking the receiver member at a desired angular position relative to the bone implant member. The receiver member and the washer may be positioned on opposite sides of the bone implant member. Additionally, the receiver member may define an aperture to receive a closure member to lock an elongated member in a passage in the receiver member.
