US Patent:
7018414, Mar 28, 2006
Filed:
Jul 29, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/630198
Inventors:
Salvador A. Brau - Los Angeles CA, US

Michael L. Schiffman - Los Angeles CA, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/44
US Classification:
623 1711, 623 1611
Abstract:
A support for vertebral fusion prevents subsidence and eliminates the need for posterior surgery and instrumentation. The support is constructed from cadaveric vertebrae or an implantable man-made material. One embodiment is a U-shaped metal support that rests on the apophyseal ring of the vertebrae, with the open portion of the U facing the patient's posterior. The metal support is then connected to a previously placed threaded cage or bone dowel such as that used in anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF).
