  • Elastic rod having different degrees of stiffness for the surgical treatment of the spine
    Patent number: 10695097
    Abstract: For a differentiated treatment of individual motion segments of the spine, a plastic rod (41, 42, 46) for the dynamic stabilization of the spine has different degrees of stiffness in its longitudinal direction. The different rod segments are interconnected along an oblique plane (13).

  • Spinal implant set for the dynamic stabilization of the spine
    Patent number: 9232964
    Abstract: A connection element (1) for stabilizing vertebral bodies that has a variable stiffness along its longitudinal axis in that particularly the cross-section of the connecting element varies along its longitudinal axis and extends over a plurality of bone screws (6). In spite of the varying cross-section (h1, h2), in a preferred embodiment, the same bone screws (6) may be used in all locations by inserting clamping elements (9, 10) of different lengths.

  • Spinal implant set including a quick closure
    Patent number: 9149299
    Abstract: Spinal implant comprising a quick closure (4) for securing a connecting element (2) in a bone screw (1) where the quick closure (4) is rotatively attachable in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction and lockable such as to be able to take up torques applied to the bone screw (1) while preserving the bone anchorage from manipulative stress.
