A generally rectangular intra-spinous spacer preferably made of bone material advantageously has a low potential for bone fusion. The spacer has depressions sized and positioned on opposite sides to receive spinal processes. The depressions reduce the amount of bone-to-spinal process contact. A fixation strap of the spacer secured either to both the superior and inferior spinous processes or to only one of the superior or inferior processes laterally maintains the implanted position of the spacer and limits either flexion and extension, just flexion, or just extension.

L'invention concerne un espaceur intraspinal de forme générale rectangulaire fabriqué dans une matière osseuse qui, avantageusement, a un faible potentiel de fusion avec l'os. L'espaceur a des dépressions dimensionnées et positionnées sur des côtés opposés pour recevoir les apophyses épineuses. Les dépressions réduisent le degré de contact entre l'os et l'apophyse épineuse. Une bride de fixation de l'espaceur, qui est immobilisée soit à la fois sur les apophyses épineuses inférieure et supérieure ou seulement sur l'apophyse épineuse supérieure ou l'apophyse épineuse inférieure, maintient latéralement la position implantée de l'espaceur et limite soit la flexion et l'extension, soit uniquement la flexion, soit uniquement l'extension.
