    摘要: A device for provides access to a surgical location within a patient. The device has an elongate body that has a proximal portion, a distal portion; a first slot segment, and a second slot segment that is angled relative to said first slot segment. The elongate body defines a passage for accessing the surgical location with surgical instruments. The elongate body has a contracted configuration for insertion into the patient and an expanded configuration for providing access to the surgical location. The cross-sectional area of the passage at a first location of the elongate body is greater than the cross-sectional area of said passage at a second location of the elongate body. A movable tab is configured to extend into the second slot segment when the elongate body is in the expanded configuration to retain the elongate body in the expanded configuration.

    摘要: A surgical instrument extendable through a cannula for moving a first bone portion relative to a second bone portion includes a first portion having a longitudinal axis engageable with a first member connected with to the first bone portion. A second portion is engageable with a second member connected with the second bone portion. The second portion is movable relative to the first portion from a first position toward a second position to move the first and second bone portions away from each other. An actuator connected with the second portion moves the second portion relative to the first portion in a direction extending transverse to the longitudinal axis.

    摘要: An apparatus is provided for connecting a longitudinal member to a bone portion. The apparatus includes a fastener engageable with a bone portion, a housing having a first passage configured to receive a longitudinal member and a second passage configured to receive the fastener. The fastener extends through an opening in the housing into the second passage and is movable relative to the housing. The longitudinal axis of the fastener is positionable in any one of a plurality of angular positions relative to a longitudinal axis of the second passage. The apparatus also includes a clamping member configured to be received in threaded engagement within the housing. The clamping member has a first end configured such that when a longitudinal member is positioned in the first passage in the housing, the first end of the clamping member engages the longitudinal member at an angle not orthogonal to an axis along which the clamping member is advanced.

    摘要: A spacer device is provided for use with a primary spinal fixation device to treat, reduce, or delay adjacent level degenerative disc disease. The spacer device comprises a compressible spacer, a transverse member, and a connecting member. The compressible spacer is sized to fit between the spinous processes of two adjacent vertebrae and is configured to reduce the range of motion of at least one vertebra. The transverse member is configured to extend from one side of the midline of the spine, extending through the interspinous process space. The transverse member is coupled with the spacer. The connecting member is attachable to the transverse member and to a primary spinal fixation device.

    摘要: A device for providing access to a surgical location within a patient comprises an elongate body having a proximal portion and a distal portion. The elongate body defines a first passage for accessing the surgical location with surgical instruments. The elongate body has a contracted configuration for insertion into the patient and an expanded configuration for providing access to the surgical location. The cross-sectional area of the first passage at a first location of the expanded configuration is greater than the cross-sectional area of the first passage at a second location of the expanded configuration. A second passage is formed integrally with the elongate body. The second passage extends from the proximal portion toward the distal portion and is sized and configured to receive a surgical instrument, such as a viewing element for visualizing the surgical location. The second passage is partially enclosed by a wall of the proximal portion.
