Abstract: Provided is an artificial spinal disc including an upper disc formed in a plate shape with top coupled to an upper vertebra, a protruding joint portion protruding from a lower surface of the upper disc, and a lower disc formed in a plate shape with bottom coupled to a lower vertebra wherein the protruding joint portion is seated on an upper surface of the lower disc. According to the foregoing description, the artificial disc is implanted through the lateral or anterolateral approach to the spine, rather than the anterior approach, and such lateral implantation is straightforward.

Abstract: Provided is an expandable lumbar cage including an upper member, a lower member, a sagittal adjustment unit to adjust sagittal balance of a spine, and a coronal adjustment unit to adjust coronal balance of the spine. According to the foregoing description, it is possible to simultaneously adjust the sagittal balance of the spine as well as the coronal balance, thereby achieving effective treatment of the spine having compound deformity.
