摘要： A system and method for immobilizing adjacent spinous processes in accordance with the present invention can supplement primary fusion devices and methods by immobilizing spinous processes while bone from adjacent vertebral bodies grows together. The system requires less extensive surgical procedures than other common supplemental devices, and preferably does not require bone or ligament removal. One such system comprises three spacers positioned between spinous processes and adjustably connected with a plate positioned on either side of the spinous processes. Each plate includes grips, with each grip positioned adjacent to the spinous process, forming a clamp with a grip connected with the opposing plate.

摘要： The present invention enables a physician to distract a previously created opening, determine the size of the opening, and alternatively, subsequently assist in inserting an implant between adjacent spinous processes. The distracting device has two prongs which separate as the handle of the device is closed. When the spinous processes are distracted to a desired diameter, the physician can lock the prongs in place, allowing him to determine and select an appropriately sized implant.

摘要： Systems and methods in accordance with the present invention can be applied to distract adjacent interspinous processes and measure a distraction height, so that an appropriately sized implant can be positioned between interspinous processes to relieve pain associated with at least one of the spinal column and associated structures. A system in accordance with one embodiment can include a sizing distractor having distraction prongs extending from opposing jaws, the opposing jaws can taper laterally toward the distraction prongs to assist in positioning the distraction prongs between obstructive structures related to the spine.
