Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of vertebral surgery, and more specifically, a pedicle fixation device for vertebral osteosynthesis.
  • Vertebral osteosynthesis consists in immobilizing or more generally in binding one to the other of at least two adjoining vertebrae, in order to correct the deformations of the vertebral column. This operation requires, according to the surgical procedure to be performed, the fixation of various types of bone-anchored implants such as pedicle screws associated with connecting rods which are intended to be fixed to the vertebrae, by means of a connecting connector ( clips, hooks, tie rings, caps, connection head, etc.).
  • a connecting connector clips, hooks, tie rings, caps, connection head, etc.
  • the present invention relates more specifically to a pedicle fixation device applying a multiaxial pedicle screw. STATE OF THE PRIOR ART

  • these multiaxial pedicle screws are the most used in vertebral osteosynthesis. Indeed, the multiaxiality facilitates the positioning of a connecting rod cooperating with the pedicle screws through the tulips, especially when these screws are not perfectly aligned and have differences in angulation. The surgical technique is then facilitated and the operation time reduced.
  • Such devices are, for example, in particular presented in US-5,554,157, US-5,549,608, US-5,586,984, US-6,280,442, US-6,053,917, US-5,964,760, US -6,010,503, US-5,910,142, US-6,063,089.
  • US 2009/0018591 discloses in particular a multiaxial pedicle screw device comprising a threaded section and a spherical head impression for the drive thereof, a removable tulip that locks provisionally on the pedicle screw, and a connecting rod attaching independently to the tulip, this tulip consisting of an outer body of tulip and an inner element of tulip.

  • the establishment of the clamping cap is not always easy, because of a narrow field of view with the risk of interposition of soft tissue in the housing of the tulip.
  • the clamping cap can then engage across the tulip, resulting in inefficient clamping of the assembly.
  • a multiaxial pedicle fixation device comprising a pedicle screw provided with a head housed in a tulip provided with guide slots for an intervertebral stem.
  • the head of the pedicle screw is locked in position by a locking piece inserted in the tulip.

  • a clamping cap is used to fix the device in position by pressing the rod by means of a pad.
  • the device is composed of five parts, rod not included. In addition, it does not allow to hold the rod in position relative to the collar, before the subassembly constituted by the cap and pad is set up and tight.
