Devices and Methods for Correcting Vertebral Misalignment

摘要

Embodiments of devices and methods of correcting vertebral misalignment, including, e.g., spondylolisthesis, are disclosed. In one embodiment, a vertebral implant may include an assembly configured to be secured to a first vertebral body, wherein the assembly includes a frame made of a first material and at least one end plate made of a second material different than the first material; a reducing plate configured to be slidably received over the central portion, wherein the reducing plate is configured to be secured to a second vertebral body; and an actuator configured to move the reducing plate relative to the frame.

主权项

1. A vertebral implant, comprising:
a head portion including a first counterbore, a second counterbore, a third counterbore, and a fourth counterbore; a plurality of planar longitudinal members extending away from the head portion, wherein the plurality of planar longitudinal members are spaced from one another to define a channel therebetween; and a plurality of endplates configured to be disposed on each of the plurality of planar longitudinal members.
