Abstract: An anchor extender can be couplable to a bone anchor and can include an outer sleeve, an inner sleeve, and a lock. The lock can be operable to translate the inner sleeve relative to the outer sleeve between a locked position and an unlocked position to secure the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve to a head of the bone anchor in the locked position and to release the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve from the head of the bone anchor in the unlocked position.

Abstract: A system 100 for automated storage and retrieval of materials can include a storage grid 200, and can include and/or interface with one or more material handling robots 600, and/or any other suitable components. A storage grid 200 can include a set of one or more: cells 300, columns 400, beams 500, and/or any other suitable components.

Abstract: A sleeve can be adapted to reinforce a bone anchor, and can include a body, a lock, and an actuator. The body can include a first sleeve arm and a second sleeve arm, where each can extend longitudinally along opposing sides of a longitudinal bore open at a distal end of the sleeve. The lock can be coupled to the body and releasably securable to a channel of a head of the bone anchor to secure the sleeve to the anchor.

Abstract: An anchor can be coupleable to a bone, where the anchor includes a head, a shank, a first extension, and a second extension. The head can include a distal head portion and a proximal head portion, where the proximal head portion can be open at a proximal end of the head. The shank can extend distally from the distal head portion, where the shank including a threaded portion configured to engage the bone. The second extension can be opposing the first extension, and the second extension can include a second proximal support coupled to a second end of a first elongate portion, where a first proximal support can extend transverse to the longitudinal axis, and the first proximal support portion and the second proximal support portion can be separated in a first condition and can be engaged to transfer forces there between in a second.

Abstract: A surgical derotator instrument comprises a shaft, a handle and an articulating coupler. The shaft comprises a first end portion having a bone anchor coupling and a second end portion opposite the first end portion. The handle comprises a body portion and a slot extending in the body portion. The articulating coupler connects the shaft and the handle. A method for coupling a plurality of derotator instruments into a series of derotator instruments comprises: attaching a plurality of derotator instruments to a plurality of adjacent bone anchor housings, each derotator instrument comprising: a shaft for connecting to a bone anchor housing, a handle having a slot, and an adjustable coupler connecting the shaft and the handle; adjusting one or more of the adjustable couplers to align at least one of the slots of the series with other slots of the series; and inserting an elongate member through the at least one slots that are aligned.

Abstract: An anchor assembly can be couplable to a bone and can include an anchor and a housing. The anchor can include a shank securable to bone and a head coupled to a proximal portion of the shank.

Abstract: The present application provides a tool for minimally invasive surgical procedures. The tool includes a first and second portion where each portion has an outer blade and an inner blade that is slidable along the outer blade. A removable connector connects the first and second portions. When removed, the first and second portions are separated by a gap extending the length of the tool.
