APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONNECTING SPINAL FIXATION SYSTEMS TOGETHER

摘要

A connection system is provided that joins two or more spinal fixation plate systems together. In one form, a pair of bone bolts forms two docking points for a connecting member to attach to and brace two spinal fixation plate systems together. In another form, the connecting member is adjustable to allow for different dimensions between two spinal fixation plate systems. In another embodiment, a cap forms a dynamic connection between a bone bolt and a connecting member.
