摘要： A transconnector for use in interconnecting a pair of longitudinal spinal rods in a spinal fixation procedure. The transconnector includes a bridge member and first and second spinal rod engaging members. The bridge member may include first and second members, wherein the first and second members are moveably associated with one another so that the distance between the first and second spinal rod engaging members can be adjusted. The first and second spinal rod engaging members include a rod receiving channel for receiving one of the spinal rods therein. The spinal rod engaging members may be articulating in, for example, the yaw and roll positions or non-articulating with respect to the bridge members. The spinal rod engaging members preferably include a spring, for example, a spring washer, to provide an opposing force so that the spinal rod engaging members can provisionally snap onto the spinal rods.

摘要翻译： 一种用于在脊柱固定过程中互连一对纵向脊柱杆的横连接器。 横连接器包括桥接件和第一和第二脊柱杆接合件。 桥构件可以包括第一构件和第二构件，其中第一构件和第二构件彼此可移动地相关联，使得可以调节第一和第二脊柱杆接合构件之间的距离。 第一和第二脊柱杆接合构件包括用于接收其中一个脊柱杆的杆接收通道。 脊柱杆接合构件可以例如在偏航和滚动位置上铰接，或者相对于桥构件非铰接。 脊柱杆接合构件优选地包括弹簧，例如弹簧垫圈，以提供相反的力，使得脊椎杆接合构件可临时地卡扣到脊椎杆上。
