The present invention relates generally to a surgical device for the correction of deformities of the spinal column and finds particular, although not exclusive, utility in devices which are surgically implantable. Presently known implantable surgical devices are unable to provide for the progressive correction of spinal deformities assisted by active movements of the human body without fusion of the involved part of the spinal column. The present surgical device comprises a spinal column straightening means for permitting the relative rotation of two substantially adjacent vertebrae about a common axis substantially only in opposite rotational directions.
La présente invention porte d'une manière générale sur un dispositif chirurgical pour correction de déformations de la colonne vertébrale qui trouve une utilité particulière, bien que non exclusive, dans des dispositifs qui sont implantables par chirurgie. Les dispositifs chirurgicaux implantables qui sont connus actuellement sont incapables de fournir une correction progressive de déformations de la colonne vertébrale assistée par des mouvements actifs du corps humain sans fusion de la partie de la colonne vertébrale impliquée. Le présent dispositif chirurgical comprend un moyen de redressement de la colonne vertébrale destiné à permettre la rotation relative de deux vertèbres sensiblement adjacentes autour d'un axe commun sensiblement uniquement dans des directions de rotation opposées.
