ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to a medical device, namely a novel clip to be used in conjunction with a Harrington rod for the treatment of spinal disorders. The hook has a body portion with a housing at one end thereof, with a hooked portion at the opposite end. A sleeve is inserted through and is retained in a channel which extends through the housing by a retaining means. Using this clip, it is possible to spread the load over more than one lamina as more than one hook may be used in the proce- dure. This thus allows a patient to be mobile without external support immediately following surgery which has been impossible with the prior art devices.
