INTER SPINOUS PROCESS SPACER WITH COMPRESSIBLE CORE PROVIDING DYNAMIC STABILIZATION

摘要

The described devices are useful in the treatment of spinal disorders and pain. In particular, the described devices are designed to stabilize a portion of the spine by restoring and maintaining spacing between two adjacent vertebrae. The devices are compressible spacers that may be situated between the spinous processes of those adjacent vertebrae. The described inter spinous process spacers also allow a range of spinal motion and mimic the motion of a normally functioning spine.
