  • SPINAL CORRECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20140058450
    Abstract: A spinal construct comprises a first member defining a longitudinal axis and extending between a first end and a second end being offset relative to the longitudinal axis. A second member defines a longitudinal axis and extends between a first end and a second end being offset relative to the longitudinal axis of the second member. The second ends are connected to define an axis of rotation such that the members are relatively rotatable about the second ends and the axis of rotation is offset relative to the longitudinal axes. Systems and methods are disclosed.

  • Expandable Intervertebral Prosthesis Device for Posterior Implantation and Related Method Thereof
    Publication number: 20100087924
    Abstract: A method and device for the insertion of a vertebral cage that may be done through a posterior approach that is minimally traumatic and does not require retraction of the spinal cord, dural sac or spinal nerves. The insertion of the cage may therefore be parallel to the spinal cord and the cage will be rotated ninety degrees (or as desired or required) in the vertebral body defect or as applicable to achieve its proper positioning before expansion.
