CA 2605340

The forces exerted on a spinal implant (60) by one or more coupling assemblies (10, 110, 210) are controlled to facilitate the use of the implant (60) in spinal stabilization and other procedures. The coupling assemblies (10, 110, 210) are structured to limit the forces exerted on the implant (60) to avoid undesirable alteration of a characteristic of the implant (60) while engaging the implant (60) to the coupling assembly (10, 110, 210) and providing at least one of a rigid, semi-rigid or variable engagement of the coupling assembly (10, 110, 210) with one or more anatomical structures of the spinal column.

Selon l'invention, les forces exercées sur un implant vertébral (60) par un ou plusieurs ensembles de couplage (10, 110, 210) sont régulées de façon que l'utilisation de l'implant (60) soit facilitée dans une opération de stabilisation vertébrale et dans d'autres opérations. Les ensembles de couplage (10, 110, 210) sont structurés en vue d'une limitation des forces exercées sur l'implant (60), ce qui permet d'éviter l'altération d'une caractéristique de l'implant (60) pendant l'entrée en prise de l'implant (60) avec l'ensemble de couplage (10, 110, 210), et d'obtenir une prise rigide, semi-rigide et/ou variable de l'ensemble de couplage (10, 110, 210) avec une ou plusieurs structures anatomiques de la colonne vertébrale.
