Abstract

See full text

A spinal connector assembly includes a connector body having a first receiver portion, a second receiver portion, and a threaded portion extending axially from the second receiver portion. A washer member coupled with the connector may rotate about the rotational axis and translate along the rotational axis. A lock member threadingly engages the threaded portion of the connector body to exert an axial force onto a second implant member to compress the second implant member within a channel in the washer member which in turn displaces the washer member into compressed engagement with a first implant member to thereby lock the washer member and the second implant member at a select angular orientation relative to the connector body, and the axial force also compresses the first implant member into clamped engagement within the first passage of the connector body.
