Abstract
The present invention is directed to a spinal implant system that incorporates unique snap, or spring loaded, features to assist the surgeon in the placement of screws, rods, hooks and transverse connectors. The poly-axial movement also uses a more direct loading lower saddle into the bone screw to improve locking of the construct.
Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO OTHER APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation application of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 14 / 198,447 entitled “Spinal Stabilization System,” filed Mar. 5, 2014, and further claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 61 / 875,239 entitled “Spinal Stabilization System,” filed Sep. 9, 2013, the disclosures of which are both incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present invention relates to devices and methods for assembling and adjusting orthopedic constructs connected to bony anatomy of a patient.
