Abstract

See full text

Method and devices are provided for correction of spinal deformities. The methods and devices are particularly useful for correcting an abnormal curvature of the spine. In one exemplary embodiment, the methods and devices provide a spinal implant that can include a wedged-shape configuration. The wedged implant can be interposed between adjacent vertebrae that form part of an abnormal spinal curvature, thereby realigning the vertebrae and restoring the normal curvature to the spine.
