Systems and devices for dynamically stabilizing the spine are provided. The systems include a superior component for attachment to a superior vertebra of a spinal motion segment and an inferior component for attachment to an inferior vertebral of a spinal motion segment. The interconnection between the two components enables the spinal motion segment to move in a manner that mimics the natural motion of the spinal motion segment while substantially offloading the facet joints of the spine. Methods are also provided for stabilizing the spine and for implanting the subject systems.
L'invention concerne des systèmes et des dispositifs de stabilisation dynamique de la colonne vertébrale. Les systèmes comprennent un composant supérieur permettant l'attachement, à une vertèbre supérieure, d'un segment de mouvement de la colonne vertébrale, et un composant inférieur permettant l'attachement, à une vertèbre inférieure, d'un segment de mouvement de la colonne vertébrale. L'interconnexion entre les deux composants permet au segment de mouvement de se déplacer de manière à imiter le déplacement naturel dudit segment de mouvement, tout en déchargeant sensiblement les facettes vertébrales de la colonne vertébrale. L'invention concerne en outre des procédés de stabilisation de la colonne vertébrale et d'implantation des systèmes précités.
