Abstract: A modular implant for performing an intervertebral fusion on adjacent vertebral bodies in a patient including a first spacer portion, a second spacer and a container having a first end and a second end, the first end of the container constructed to operably engage a first spacer and the second end of the container constructed to operably engage the second spacer.

Abstract: A method of performing percutaneous interbody spinal fusion on adjacent vertebrae in a patient including the steps of: creating a percutaneous access opening on the patient, using indirect visualization to establish a surgical path through the access opening via neural monitoring, creating a cavity in a disc space between the adjacent vertebra, without retraction, evaluating the created cavity, inserting a container sized and configured to fit through the access opening into the cavity and filling the container with fill material.

Abstract: A system, device and method for performing a spinal interbody fusion is disclosed. The spinal fusion device may include a container that is placed in a prepared intervertebral cavity and then filled with a plurality of individual pieces or beads of PEEK or other biocompatible non-biologic material to provide mechanical support between the adjacent vertebra, and to distract the adjacent vertebrae and promote fusion.

Abstract: A stainless steel bristled surgical brush for removing nucleus material from the intervertebral space and cartilage from vertebral endplates is provided herein. The surgical brush of the present invention may be dimensioned to be placed through a minimally invasive and/or percutaneous access through an access portal. In certain embodiments, the surgical brush may be straight or bent, may include a cap to contain the tines and may include a depth stop. The brush may be manually operated, powered by a wire driver or powered by other suitable means.

Abstract: Implants comprising a plurality of separate cortical bone units, which have been at least partially demineralized and are osteoinductive, are described herein. The implants can be used in methods for treating bone. Also, disclosed are methods for treating spinal conditions using these implants. The spinal conditions include but are not limited to repairing damage to or defects in the spine, such as fractures in a vertebral body or degeneration of spinal discs.
