    Abstract: Translational bone fixation assemblies, kits containing such assemblies, and methods of use are described herein. The described assemblies may be used in spinal fusion procedures in which a damaged or diseased disc (or part of a disc) is removed from between a pair of vertebrae and a spinal fusion spacer is placed between the vertebrae. The assemblies may be applied to an anterior portion of the affected vertebrae to span the affected disc space, and may be fixed to the vertebrae using bone screws. The assemblies may function to maintain the vertebrae aligned during the initial period following fixation in which fusion of the spacer to the adjacent vertebrae occurs. The assemblies may also function to share some of the axial spinal load applied to the fusion spacer to prevent extreme subsidence of the spacer into the vertebral body, such as where the patient has poor bone quality.

    Abstract: An assembly (10,100,200,300,400) for use with a bone fastener includes a fixation device (12,112,210,302,412) and a bone fastener retainer device (16,120,220,320,414) . The fixation device has an opening (15,115,217) configured to receive a bone fastener in an installed position in which an outer end portion of the bone fastener is located within the opening. The retainer device is receivable over the fixation device in a closed position extending over the location taken by the outer end portion of the bone fastener within the opening. Additionally, the fixation device and the retainer device together have first (25,232,312,445) and second (42,230,306,442) locking structures. The locking structures are configured to engage each other in an undeflected condition when the retainer device is in a partially closed position, and to snap into interlocked engagement with each other under an applied force that moves the retainer device from the partially closed position to the closed position. A hinge (40,122,224,416) may support the bone fastener retainer device on the fixation device.

    Abstract: The invention provides a method of revising an implanted spinal device, such as an implanted arthroplasty device having a cephalad component fixed to a first vertebra and a caudal component fixed to a second vertebra inferior to the first vertebra. The method includes the following steps: removing a portion of a previously implanted spinal arthroplasty device; and attaching a revision component to a remaining portion of the previously implanted spinal arthroplasty device to alter a biomechanical characteristic of the implanted arthroplasty device. Another aspect of the invention provides a method of limiting motion between adjacent vertebrae including the steps of accessing an implanted spinal arthroplasty device comprising a cephalad component fixed to a first vertebra and a caudal component fixed to a second vertebra inferior to the first vertebra, the cephalad and caudal components having a range of motion between them, and attaching a revision component to the cephalad and caudal components to reduce the range of motion. The invention also includes revision devices for revising the biomechanics of implanted spinal arthroplasty devices.
