A spinal implant system (22, 99) is disclosed for the fixation of bone segments in the spine. The system includes an elongated member (22), one or more bone anchor assemblies (24), and stabilizer members (26) which are fitt ed within the elongated member. A bone anchor is attached to a bone, and the elongated member and stabilizer are fitted over the bone anchor. A rounded washer (42) and nut (44) having a corresponding rounded underside surface ar e fitted on to the bone anchor over the elongated member, and tightened. The configuration of the bone anchor assembly, including an intermediate portion of the bone anchor, the arcuate washer, and the nut, along with the configuration of the sliding support, allows multi-axial positioning of the bone anchor with respect to the elongated member at a plurality of locations along a slotted member. |
