    摘要: A receiver for engaging a bone stabilizing element includes a receiver portion connectable to the stabilizing element, and a base portion connectable to a bone of a patient. The base portion may connect to the bone with a bone screw, for example a polyaxial bone screw, and the receiver portion may connect to the stabilizing element, for example a rod, using a set screw. The receiver portion and the base portion are slideably connected to each other, coupled and constrained in relative movement, by overlapping portions. Axial rotation between the receiver portion and the base portion is enabled by changing the relative dimensions of overlapped portions.

    摘要: An apparatus and method related to a collet for a spinal screw are described herein. In some embodiments, such an apparatus includes a screw, a movable head comprising a top portion and a bottom portion, a concave interior larger than a screw head, a connecting rod, a locking element screw, and a collet interposed between the screw head and the concave interior of the movable head, where the collet comprises a flexible hinge, and where the collet reduces axial compression force transferred from the set screw to the screw head.

    摘要: A pivotal bone screw assembly includes a receiver having a central bore with a bottom opening and a channel for receiving an elongate rod, with the central bore including a partial spherical internal surface adjacent the bottom opening and a horizontally-extending recess with a cylindrical sidewall surface. The assembly also includes a shank with a capture structure for positioning within the central bore and an anchor portion for attachment to the bone, with the capture structure having a partial spherical lower surface configured to slidably engage the internal surface of the central bore to provide for pivotal motion of the shank with respect to the receiver, together with an insert with a rod seating surface and an outwardly-projecting radiused structure, with the insert being downwardly displaceable within the central bore until the radiused structure snaps into the recess to prevent upward movement of the insert with respect to the receiver.

    摘要: An orthopedic fastener may include a shaft and a plurality of petals extending helically around the shaft. Each of the plurality of petals may include a proximal face and a distal face. The proximal face may include a parabolic contour formed as an undercut parabolic portion of the proximal face. The plurality of petals may be configured to generate and progressively increase an amount of compression of trabecular bone through which the petals advance during implantation in a bone, and distribute the compressive forces along a length of the shaft.
