CA 2671250

The present invention provides devices, systems and methods for anchoring medical devices to hard tissues, such as bones or bony structures, particularly vertebrae. By anchoring these medical devices directly to the surrounding hard tissue, the devices are anchored closer to the source of treatment. This provides additional stability and reduces migration of the device at the treatment site. Also, by attaching to hard tissue rather than soft tissue, a stronger attachment is often able to be made.

La présente invention porte sur des dispositifs, systèmes et procédés pour ancrer des dispositifs médicaux à des tissus durs, comme des os ou des structures osseuses, en particulier des vertèbres. Le fait d'ancrer ces dispositifs médicaux directement au tissu dur environnant permet d'ancrer les dispositifs plus près de la source de traitement. Ceci assure une stabilité supplémentaire et réduit la migration du dispositif au niveau du site de traitement. De même, une fixation à un tissu dur plutôt qu'à un tissu mou est souvent plus solide.
