Abstract: A fixation assembly for spinal vertebrae has an anchor fixedly seatable in a spinal vertebrae and formed with an outwardly open socket, and a pedicle rod having a front end fixedly seated in the socket and a dynamic portion adjacent the front end that is shiftable relative to the anchor.

Abstract: The invention relates to an implant for use between the vertebrae (8) of the spine as a placeholder for vertebrae or vertebrae parts removed from the spine, having a first implant part (2) and a second implant part (3), which can be adjusted against each other in the direction of the coaxial longitudinal axis thereof for changing the length of the implant (1), and having at least one mounting bracket (10) that can be attached to one of the implant parts (2 and 3), and which faces the adjacent vertebra, and partially overlaps the same. The mounting bracket (10) is formed by a vertebra attachment plate (11) and by a base plate (12) comprising a guide rail (13), protruding from the vertebra attachment plate, and serving for the radial adjustment of the mounting bracket (11) as opposed to the one implant part (2 and 3), is wherein a means is associated with the one implant part (2 and 3) for the radial fixation of the base plate (12).

Abstract: An implant for placement between vertebrae, with two sidepieces joined together at one end, each of which can be placed against one of the vertebrae, and with a device for vertical distraction of the sidepieces. In the initial position for the distraction, the outside surfaces of the sidepieces that face the vertebrae converge towards the free ends of the sidepieces. This wedge shape of the implant facilitates the insertion of the implant into the intervertebral space.

Abstract: An implant for placement between vertebrae, especially as used for joining vertebrae after a diskectomy. The shape of the implant is adapted to a depression present in the vertebral surfaces facing the implant. This adaptation to the slightly depressed vertebral surface results in the implant producing less stress on the vertebral bodies and ensures a high degree of positional stability of the implant between the vertebrae.
