Abstract
Spinal alignment apparatus including rods, pedicle screws, and hinged connectors for rigidly immobilizing the vertebrae of the spine. The hinged connectors allow angular motion between the pedicle screws and the connectors when the connectors are in an open or unlocked position. The hinged connectors hold the head of the pedicle screw tightly, thus preventing angular motion, when the connector is forced closed. The hinged connector and rod are held closed by a cap or strap over the rod and connector.
