    Abstract: A system is utilized, which comprises a cross connector for use in spinal fixation, further comprising multiple connection features configured to accommodate for direct attachment to multiple rods. Teachings are directed to a device that not only provides increased construct stiffness in flexion, extension and lateral bending, but also in torsion. The system adds stiffness in standard constructs. Joining multiple adjacent constructs with varying rod sizes for load distribution are also benefits of the system.

    Abstract: Methods for implantation across one or more adjacent bones to allow for control of the distance between bone anchors. Control of distance between bone anchors may be provided by one inter-anchor element pushing the pair of bone anchors apart and a second inter-anchor element pulling the pair of bone anchors together. Control of distance between bone anchors may be provided through use of dissimilar thread pitch. Compression of the space between bone anchors through controlled movement of a pair of anchored bone anchors towards one another.

    Abstract: An expanding surgical dilator for access to the spine and associated method of use is presented. The method has several steps associated with utilizing the expanding surgical dilator to facilitate the placement of objects, optionally implants and/or instrumentation, through the expanding surgical dilator that exceed the expanding surgical dilator's diameter in its compressed form. The expanding surgical dilator comprises an elastic sheath that can stretch and accommodate and link blades forming the rigid bodies of the sheath.
