    • A spinal rod guide and/or guide assembly is provided for mounting a spinal rod onto a spinal rod holder/connector of a vertebral bone screw. The spinal rod guide is configured to extend between an opening in a patient's body and the spinal rod holder of the vertebral bone screw assembly, to receive a spinal rod therein, and thereafter accurately guide the spinal rod into the spinal rod holder. The spinal rod guide is defined by a first elongated arc portion and a second elongated arc portion to define a guide tube for the introduction and placement of additional spinal rod components onto the spinal rod connector, particularly, but not necessarily, for securing the spinal rod into the spinal rod connector. The elongated arc portions are mountable or initially attached onto a top of a spinal rod holder of a spinal rod bone screw assembly. The elongated arc portions (tube) define first and second longitudinal slots extending from a top of the elongated arc portions to a bottom of the elongated arc portions. The two longitudinal slots are situated such as to be diametrically opposite one another. Each longitudinal slot aligns with a spinal rod slot of the spinal rod holder to thereby allow easy placement of the spinal rod into the spinal rod holder. Thereafter, the defined elongated tube provides direct communication and alignment with the top of the spinal rod holder in order to receive a spinal rod connector drive screw for securing the spinal rod into the spinal rod holder.

    • A spinal rod connector is configured to accommodate a range of spinal rod diameters. The present spinal rod connector may take the form of a spinal rod screw head, hook, spinal rod connector or a spinal rod holder. The spinal rod connector has spinal rod reception slots whose sides narrow towards a bottom of the slot. The narrowing of the sides provides a wedging effect such that a spinal rod is wedged into place during locking. The narrowing sides of the slots thus provide for the accommodation of varying rod diameters. The spinal connector also provides significant improvement in spinal rod torsional resistance compared to prior art radial shaped slots. In one form, the spinal rod reception slots are essentially V-shaped. However, other shapes following the principles of the present invention may be used and are contemplated. The width of the slot sides and the rate of curvature of the slot sides thus determine the range of spinal rod diameters that are accommodated by the spinal rod reception slots and therefore the spinal rod connector.
    • 脊椎杆连接器被配置成适应一定范围的脊柱杆直径。 目前的脊柱杆连接器可采取脊柱杆螺钉头,钩,脊柱杆连接器或脊柱杆支架的形式。 脊柱杆连接器具有脊侧杆接收狭槽,其侧面朝向槽的底部变窄。 侧面的变窄提供楔形效果,使得在锁定期间脊椎杆楔入就位。 狭槽的狭窄侧面因此提供适应不同杆直径。 与现有技术的径向形状的狭槽相比,脊椎连接器还提供了脊椎杆扭转阻力的显着改善。 在一种形式中,脊柱杆接收槽基本上是V形的。 然而,可以使用遵循本发明的原理的其他形状并且被设想。 狭槽侧的宽度和槽侧的曲率的速率因此决定了由脊柱杆接收槽和因此脊椎杆连接器容纳的脊柱杆直径的范围。

    • A spinal rod connector provides single step locking of a spinal rod relative to a bone screw. The single step lock-up is in line with the vertebral bone screw while still allowing for effectively 3600 of rotation of a portion of the spinal rod connector assembly with the spinal rod (but functionally 180° or +/−90° of the 0° position depicted in the various figures). The present spinal rod connector assembly utilizes components having V-shapes of various angles to provide holding of the spinal rod. A pulling and compression force locks the spinal rod onto the spinal rod connector and thus relative to the vertebral bone screw to which the spinal rod connector assembly is attached. The present spinal rod connector allows easy sliding down on guides of the spinal rod connector assembly since spinal rod rotation locks up from the rod being pulled towards the vertebral bone screw.
    • 脊柱杆连接器提供相对于骨螺钉的脊柱杆的单步锁定。 单步锁定与椎骨螺钉一致,同时仍然允许脊柱杆连接器组件的一部分与脊柱杆的有效3600旋转(但是功能上为0°的180°或+/- 90° 位置)。 本发明的脊柱杆连接器组件使用具有各种角度的V形的部件来提供脊柱杆的保持。 拉力和压缩力将脊柱杆锁定到脊椎杆连接器上并且因此将脊髓杆连接器组件附接到脊椎骨螺钉。 目前的脊柱杆连接器允许在脊柱杆连接器组件的引导件上容易地向下滑动,因为脊柱杆旋转锁定从杆被拉向椎骨螺钉。

    • A spinal cross connector is configured for connection between spinal rods and provides allowance or space for spinal extensor muscles once the spinal process has been removed. The cross connector has curved first and second connection members that are adjustable in length and rotation relative to one another. A first clamping member is provided on the first connection member and defines first and second arcuate jaws that are adapted to clamp onto a first spinal rod. A second clamping member is provided on the second connection member and defines first and second arcuate jaws that are adapted to clamp onto a second spinal rod. Both the first and second clamping members are rotatable and thus provide the rotational adjustment. The cross-connector also provides easy in situ sizing and adjustability.

    • A spinal spacer or stenotic device is expandable, inflated and/or filled in situ or ex vivo through the addition of a biocompatible fill material into the spinal implant once inserted or implanted in like manner to an angioplasty bag. Once implanted, expansion or inflation of the present expandable spinal spacer distracts the spine (creates spacing). The present expandable spinal spacer can operate as an interspinous, interspinous process, or intralaminar spinal spacer. In general the present expandable spinal space creates and/or maintains spacing between vertebrae or components of vertebrae. The present expandable spinal spacer is formed of a generally pliable biocompatible material that is collapsible and expandable/fillable. Preferably, but not necessarily, the biocompatible material is a mesh or weave type material, although other materials may be used.
