MULTI-AXIAL SPINAL CROSS CONNECTING DEVICE

摘要

A cross connecting device suitable for connecting first and second spinal fixation devices comprises a fixable pivot junction, first and second connection members, and first and second clamps. The fixable pivot junction includes a pivotable joint that is pivotable about a pivot point. The fixable pivot junction also includes a collar configured for fixating the pivot junction. The first and second connection members are connected by the fixable pivot junction such that the fixable pivot junction allows the first and second connection members to be repositioned relative to each other. The first and second clamps are connected to respective ones of the first and second connection members at distal ends of the connection members relative to the fixable pivot junction. The first and second clamps allow the cross connecting device to be clamped on to spinal fixation devices, such as pedicle screws or hooks.
