SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A GLOBAL THREE-DIMENSIONAL CORRECTION OF THE CURVATURES OF THE SPINE

摘要

A three-dimensional correction of the curvatures of the spine, for reducing spinal deformities is provided including without limitation scoliosis, by using a pair of pedicle screws (10, 11) placed on each of the spinal vertebrae of the spine to be corrected, in combination with alignment elongated members or extenders (13, 19) temporally fixed by a proximate portion and associated with corrective rods (15, 21) engaged with said extenders, running along a transverse plan, each of said corrective rods (15, 21) providing implant rods.
