Abstract

See full text

The invention is a spinal fusion system with fusion rod anchors which do not use staples or screws to achieve securement to a patient's spine. The system relies on a head segment pivotally attached to a base having a channel imparted therein, the channel having an entry and exit opening. The rod anchor is secured with a threadable segment which is threaded through the channel and around an associated vertebra. Multiple rod anchors can be attached to a patient's vertebrae in this manner and a fusion rod is inserted into the multiple anchors and locked down inside the rod anchors with a lock nut.
