A stabilization device for vertebra bones includes a first rod(1), a second rod, a rod connector(3), a receiving unit(4), and a fixing member(7). The rod connector connects the first and second rods. The receiving unit receives the first rod. The fixing member fixes the first rod inside the receiving unit.
