Abstract

A spinal implant includes a body having an inner surface and a connecting wall. The inner surface defines at least one cavity and the connecting wall is disposed about the at least one cavity. The connecting wall defines at least one opening. An agent is disposable with the at least one cavity. Spinal constructs, surgical instruments, systems and methods are disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to medical devices for treating musculoskeletal disorders, and more particularly, to surgical systems and methods for treating the spine. Background technique [0002] Spinal disorders such as degenerative disc disease, disc herniation, osteoporosis, spondylolisthesis, stenosis, scoliosis and other curvature abnormalities, kyphosis, tumors, and fractures can be caused by trauma, disease, and Factors causing degenerative conditions caused by aging. Spinal disorders often result in symptoms including pain, nerve damage, and partial or complete loss of mobility. [0003] Non-surgical treatments such as medication, rehabilitation, and exercise can be effective, however, may not relieve symptoms associated with these conditions. Surgical treatments for these spinal conditions include fusion, fixation, orthosis, discectomy, minidiscectomy, corpectomy, decompression, laminectomy, laminotomy, foraminotomy, Vertebral ...
