Systems for minimally invasive disc augmentation include an anulus augmentation component (552) and a nucleus augmentation component (554). Both are suited for minimally invasive deployment. The nucleus augmentation component (554) restores disc height and/or replaces missing nucleus pulposus. The anulus augmentation (552) component shields weakened regions of the anulus fibrosis and/or resists escape of natural nucleus pulposus and/or the nucleus augmentation component (554). Methods and deployment devices are also disclosed.
L'invention concerne des systèmes permettant d'augmenter un disque de manière peu invasive, qui comprennent un composant d'augmentation d'anneau et un composant d'augmentation de noyau, ces deux composants étant appropriés pour se déployer de manière peu invasive. Le composant d'augmentation de noyau restaure la hauteur du disque et/ou remplace un noyau gélatineux manquant. Le composant d'augmentation d'anneau protège les régions affaiblies du noyau fibreux, et/ou empêche la perte de noyau gélatineux naturel et/ou de composant d'augmentation de noyau. L'invention concerne des procédés et des dispositifs de déploiement.
