Abstract: The invention relates to a handling instrument for connecting to a bone anchor, comprising a first outer and a second inner sleeve-shaped housing part with a respective longitudinal direction, a first housing part internal thread which extends in the respective longitudinal direction, and a second housing part external thread.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device for carrying out a distraction and/or compression of vertebral bodies.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device for carrying out a distraction and/or a compression of vertebral bodies during spinal surgery, said device comprising a first and a second sleeve-shaped extension part, each part having a longitudinal direction and each of which parts can be secured on a bone anchor in a detachable but rigid and rotationally fixed manner. The device is characterized by a first eccentric bearing part and a second counter bearing part, which parts can be positioned on the first and on the second extension part respectively in corresponding positions, and in that, at least the eccentric bearing part can be rotated relative to the first extension part about the longitudinal direction of said extension part, such that due to the eccentricity, the first bearing part can be brought into contact with the second counter bearing part and thus a bearing position is formed for forming a pivot joint between the two extension parts in order to perform the distraction or compression.

Abstract: The invention relates to an osteosynthesis device having a bone screw (12), which has a threaded shaft (24) and a ball head (26), and having a fork head (14), which has a groove (32) and two legs (34), the ball head (26) being pivotably supported in the fork head (14), and having a pressure piece (16), which is seated on the ball head (26), the pressure piece (16) being braced on the fork head (14) and having two lateral fins (48) extending in the axial direction (30) of the fork head (14) and away from the threaded shaft (24); it is proposed that the pressure piece (16) is supported in the fork head (14) with prestressing in the axial direction (30) and thus in the direction toward the ball head (26) in that at least one of the fins (48) is slit transversely to the axial direction (30) of the fork head (14), so that a slit (50) forms a spring tongue (52), and the pressure piece (16) is thereby resiliently embodied and is braced via the spring tongue (52) on the fork head (14), and that a protrusion (70) prot
