    Abstract: Devices, tools and methods for minimally invasive implantation of a dynamic interspinous implant device for distracting between spinous processes and providing dynamic stabilization. One exemplary device includes a main body including a shaft having a longitudinal axis; a first clamping mechanism having first and second jaws configured to clamp a spinous process of a first vertebra, and a second clamping mechanism having third and fourth jaws configured to clamp a spinous process of a second vertebra. The first, second, third and fourth jaws extend transversely from the shaft and at least two of two of the jaws are releasably mounted to the shaft and are mountable to and removable from the shaft by relative movement between the respective jaw and the shaft in a direction normal to a longitudinal axis of the shaft. The shaft has sufficient columnar strength to maintain distraction between the first and second vertebrae via the clamps, while also allowing at least one of the relative movements between the first and second vertebrae selected from the movements including lateral bending, flexion, extension and axial rotation.

    Abstract: Devices, tools and methods for minimally invasive implantation and distraction between spinous processes for treatment of spinous disorders. An interspinous implant device for distracting at least one pair of adjacent spinous processes includes a main body (12) including a shaft (14) having a longitudinal axis; and first and second arms (18) extending transversely from the main body, wherein at least one of the first and second arms is slidably mounted with respect to the shaft. The arms are configured and dimensioned to extend laterally from both sides of the spinous processes when implanted therebetween and to be inserted between the spinous processes laterally from a single side thereof. The arms are variably positionable between a closed configuration, to facilitate insertion of the arms between the adjacent spinous processes, and an open configuration, in which the arms are separated from one another.

    Abstract: Devices and methods for treating spinal disorders and associated discomfort therefrom. In one embodiment, an interspinous implant device (10) is configured for distracting an adjacent pair of spinous processes while permitting relative flexion, lateral bending and side rotation motions between the vertebrae joined to the adjacent pair of spinous processes. A method of treating spinal disorders and associated discomfort therefrom, includes inserting an interspinous device between a pair of adjacent spinous processes such that a superior portion of the device contacts an 'inferior surface of the relatively superior spinous process of the pair, and an inferior portion of the of the device contacts a superior surface of the relatively inferior spinous process of the pair; and distracting the superior and inferior portions, relative to one another, thereby distracting the spinous processes, whereby vertebrae integral with the spinous processes retain capability of flexion, lateral bending and side rotation motions, relative to one another, after the distraction has been performed.
