Patent number: 11617601Abstract: The present invention relates to stable fixation of spine segments, allowing for fusion in, e.g., skeletally mature patients. More particularly, the invention relates to a bone fixation device that can be affixed to vertebrae of a spine to provide reduction (or enlargement) capabilities and allow for fixation in the treatment of various conditions, including, e.g., spondyloslisthesis, degenerative disc disease, fracture, dislocation, spinal tumor, failed previous fusion, and the like, in the spine. The invention also relates to a method for delivering and implanting the bone fixation device.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2020Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: Globus Medical Inc.Inventors: Brad Juchno, Kurt Faulhaber

Publication number: 20220409247Abstract: A retaining plate with locking mechanism assembly includes a retaining plate having a first screw hole extending therethrough and a spring blocker rotatably mounted in plate proximate to the first screw hole. The spring blocker includes a body portion, a first land extending radially from the body portion above the retaining plate, and a first wing extending tangentially from the first land in a first arc. When a first screw is inserted into the first screw hole, when the spring blocker is rotated to a first position, the first land extends over a portion of the first screw. When the spring blocker is rotated to a second position, the first wing extends over the portion of the first screw. When the spring blocker is rotated to a third position, neither the first land nor the first wing extends over the portion of the first screw.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2020Publication date: December 29, 2022Applicant: Tyber Medical LLCInventors: Jeffrey Tyber, David Hannah, Michal Zentko, Brad Juchno
