A rod to rod connector includes at least one clamping assembly for receiving a first spinal rod. The clamping assembly may include a polyaxial articulation element. The articulation element may include a hollow body forming an opening. The clamping body may further include a pivot element configured to clamp the first spinal rod between the pivot element and a channel wall in the clamping assembly. The rod to rod connector may also include a connector member for connecting the clamping assembly to a second spinal rod. The connector member may include a socket configured to receive the polyaxial articulation element of the clamping assembly, with the articulation element polyaxially rotatable relative to the axis of the socket. |
