    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to flexible guide wires, and, more particularly, to a flexible guide wire that can be attached to a surgical site and pulled taut to provide a guide for the introduction of instruments and implants to the surgical site, but cannot be pushed towards the surgical site without the wire bending so that there is no advancement of the tip of the flexible guide wire further into the surgical site or bony structure.

    Abstract: Prostheses and methods for repair of a cervical fact joint. The articulating surfaces of the natural facets of the facet joint are removed only a sufficient amount to allow the insertion of flat or slightly curvilinear portions of protheses therebetween in an overlapping relationship. The portions are so inserted and the prostheses mounted by attachment to adjacent vertebrae. Also, a single natural facet may be similarly repaired with a single prosthesis.

    Abstract: Methods and instrumentation for surgical procedures relating to preparation of vertebral bodies and a disc space for insertion of spinal implants is disclosed. One instrument is a shim having a blade and a shaft having a first end connected with the blade. The blade is inserted into a distracted disc space to maintain distraction during subsequent procedures. Another instrument is a driver for driving the blade of the shim into the distracted disc space. Various methods contemplate the use of these instruments to maintain disc space distraction during disc space preparation for receiving an implant.
