摘要： There are provided orthopedic fixation systems for attachment of a rod to bone. In an embodiment, plate having top and bottom surfaces includes at least one pocket formed through the surfaces to engage an anchor to bone. At least one arm extends from the longitudinal section of the plate. A housing portion has a base configured for slideable engagement with a course defined in the arm to allow selective positioning of the housing portion. The housing defines a passageway for slideable engagement with a rod to allow selective positioning of the rod. A ring has an inner surface for engagement with the housing portion and a lower surface for engagement with the plate. Locking apparatus is configured for engagement with the arm, housing, and rod to allow selective fixation of (1) the housing along the arm and (2) the rod and the housing with respect to one another.

摘要： The present invention provides a spinal implant for placement between adjacent processes of the human spine. In some embodiments the spinal implant includes a spacer and one or more retention members. In some embodiments, the retention members are fixed relative to the spacer and in other embodiments the retention members are deployable from a first or compact or stowed position to a second or expanded or deployed position. In some embodiments the spacer is expandable from a first size to a second size. In some embodiments the spacer has a tapered body.

摘要： The present invention provides a bone fastener assembly useful in constructs for stabilizing bones of a patient. In one aspect of the invention, a bone fastener assembly includes a connecting member, a fastener seat, and a bone fastener. The fastener seat and fastener are receivable in the connecting member and the fastener seat is movable from a first position to a second position to retain the fastener in the connecting member. In another aspect of the invention, a bone fastener assembly includes a rod holder, a fastener seat mounted to the rod holder for rotation about the rod holder axis; and a bone, fastener. The bone fastener is generally “T”-shaped and engages the fastener seat in pivoting relationship such that the bone fastener is able to pivot to vary the angle between the bone fastener and the fastener seat.
