摘要:
A spinal interbody fusion device for use in a plurality of surgical approaches includes a cage, a top end, a bottom end, and at least a first side representing the width of the cage and at least a second side representing a length of the cage. The cage includes fixation holes and inserter holes, with each fixation hole being configured for accepting a screw or anchor and each inserter hole being accessible for one or more surgical approaches for performing a spinal fusion. Also included are methods for selecting a size of an intervertebral implant and methods of surgically approaching a spine of a patient for spinal surgical procedures.

摘要:
The present invention provides for improved interbody cage devices using surgical methods for delivering such cage into the disc space. The present invention has at least one advantage of providing practical and advantageous methods for accessing the spinal disc space to insert and deploy interbody cage devices in various manners that overcome the disadvantages of posterior, trans-sacro-iliac, anterior, oblique and lateral approaches thereto and minimize surgical trauma to the patient. Thus, the present invention provides for the unmet need for improved interbody cage devices which may be inserted to a disc space for patients exhibiting a wide range of anatomies.

This disclosure describes devices and methods for performing spinal surgical procedures. In some embodiments, a method may include positioning at least a portion of at least one surgical instrument in at least one naturally occurring orifice of a human by a user. In some embodiments, a method may include accessing an interior space of the human using at least one of the surgical instruments. The method may include performing at least a portion of a spinal surgical procedure using at least one of the surgical instruments positioned in at least one of the naturally occurring orifices of the human. The method may include removing at least one of the surgical instruments from at least one of the naturally occurring orifices upon completion of at least a portion of the spinal surgical procedure.
摘要:
The present invention provides a spinal surgical approach which provides approaching the spine of a patient for spinal interbody fusion or total disc replacement through the oblique (a.k.a. anterior to psoas) corridor in an improved manner. Aspects of the invention further provide a means to facilitate the restoration of sagittal plane lordotic alignment. Other aspects of the invention provide a means to facilitate exposure of the spine and shorten operative times with fewer steps. In certain embodiments, aspects of the invention provide for improved instrumentation and devices to facilitate the surgical approach method so that it can be accomplished in a simpler and more effective manner.
