    摘要: The present invention provides a spinal surgical approach which provides approaching the spine of a patient for spinal interbody fusion or total disc replacement through the oblique (a.k.a. anterior to psoas) corridor in an improved manner. Aspects of the invention further provide a means to facilitate the restoration of sagittal plane lordotic alignment. Other aspects of the invention provide a means to facilitate exposure of the spine and shorten operative times with fewer steps. In certain embodiments, aspects of the invention provide for improved instrumentation and devices to facilitate the surgical approach method so that it can be accomplished in a simpler and more effective manner.

    摘要: An interbody spinal implant for implantation in a disc space between adjacent vertebral bodies, and an insertion instrument facilitating such implantation is provided. The spinal implant includes a body portion and an extended end portion, where at least the body portion can include a biconvex upper and lower surfaces. And the insertion instrument is engageable to a proximal end portion of the interbody spinal implant to facilitate insertion of the interbody spinal implant into the disc space.

    摘要: A spinal implant device comprising a frame and a plurality of mechanical stiffness members extending from the frame, with the plurality of mechanical stiffness members being individually customized to provide a specific axial stiffness. The plurality of mechanical stiffness members may be coupled to the frame, and the plurality of mechanical stiffness members may be a plurality of wave-spring modules. A method of treating spinal disease includes determining actual spatial mechanical properties across a vertebral contact surface of a vertebra of a patient. The method may also include manufacturing a spinal implant device that has conforming spatial mechanical properties that are specific to the patient and that are based on the actual spatial mechanical properties of the vertebral contact surface. The method may include surgically implanting the spinal implant device against the vertebral contact surface such that the actual spatial mechanical properties and the conforming spatial mechanical properties align.
