摘要:
An intervertebral device comprises a plurality of struts that are rotatably associated with each adjacent strut to form a modifiable inner volume V for bone graft containment.
摘要:
A minimally invasive intervertebral implant includes a circuitous body defining a luminal axis extending longitudinally therethrough. The circuitous body includes proximal and distal ends oppositely disposed along a lateral axis of the circuitous body. Each of the proximal and distal ends includes an aperture disposed therethrough such that the circuitous body includes a first configuration wherein the proximal and distal ends are at a maximum separation and a second configuration wherein the proximal and distal ends are closer together than in the first configuration.

Embodiments include a system that facilitates placement of a rod through receiving portions of screws placed along the spine. The system includes a rod and a cable detachably connectable to the rod to pull the rod through the receiving portions of the screws. Some embodiments include methods and devices for inserting a rod into a plurality of screws and for ex situ templating of a rod. These can include connecting a cable to a rod, inserting the cable through the plurality of screws, and using the cable to pull the rod into position. The methods of ex situ templating of the rod can include contacting a templating member to each of the screws so that a portion of the templating members replicate the relative positioning of the screws and shaping a rod to match the relative positioning of the portion of the templating members.

A sacroiliac (“SI”) joint fastener apparatus, systems, and methods of using the device is described. The SI joint fastener apparatus can include a distal segment, a proximal segment, and an expandable portion. The expandable portion can be expanded by reducing the distance between the distal and proximal segments. The SI joint fastener apparatus can be used to fuse two bone portions together. The method can include steps of coupling the fastener apparatus to two bone portions, reducing the distance between the two bone portions to place the portions in compression, and applying an outwardly directed force proximate the location to be fused.
