Patent number: 9451994Abstract: A spinal implant revision device has a revision connector and a tulip member. The revision connector is configured for attachment to a pre-existing rod in a patient. The revision connector has a slotted opening configured to receive a first or a pre-existing rod. The tulip member is pivotally connected to the revision connector and movable in angularity within predetermined ranges in a first plane. This first plane is parallel to a rod to which the revision connector is attached. A second plane which is non-parallel to that first plane allows a second or new rod to be received in the tulip and allows the second rod to pivot relative to the first rod.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2015Date of Patent: September 27, 2016Assignee: Amendia, Inc.Inventors: Dale Whipple, Jason Hayes Tillett, William C.
