A system and methods for a safe and efficient distributing of bone graft material into an intervertebral disc space are provided. Systems are provided for receiving, removing, and replacing of preloaded load cartridges in a rapid and repeating manner. The systems can also be designed for rapidly delivering the biologics from a single load cartridge and, to even further facilitate a rapid and repeating delivery of biologics, the load cartridge and cartridge tamp can be adapted so that the cartridge tamp can capture and remove the load cartridge after delivery of fusion promoting material in the load cartridge.

A device for containing bone graft material includes an outer sleeve including a first proximal longitudinal split extending along a length thereof and a first distal longitudinal split extending along a length thereof and an inner sleeve connected to the outer sleeve via at least one strut so that a bone graft collecting space is defined therebetween, the inner sleeve including a second distal longitudinal split extending along a length thereof in combination with an interstitial mesh extending circumferentially between the inner and outer sleeves to hold graft material in the bone graft collecting space, the interstitial mesh including a third longitudinal split extending along a length thereof so that a distal side of the device may be spread open to open the distal longitudinal slot from the outer sleeve, through the interstitial mesh and the inner sleeve to a space radially within the inner sleeve.

The present disclosure describes an intervertebral implant having a laterovertically-expanding shell operable for a reversible expansion from a collapsed state into an expanded state, the laterovertically-expanding shell having one or more connectors, and a pair of lateral extension elements that function to laterally expand the footprint of the implant within an intervertebal disc space.

The bionic dislocation-proof artificial lumbar vertebrae and disc complex comprises vertebral body components, intervertebral disc components and screws; the vertebral body components comprise an oval column; the intervertebral disc components comprise L-shaped arc plates and composite pads, the L-shaped arc plates comprise bottom plates, lateral plate and the raised column; end of the raised column is the ball shell with two raised arc; the composite pad is connected to the groove on the oval column; the ball shell and the composite ball form the ball and socket joint. The present invention replaces the removed vertebrae and adjacent discs and maintains the rotation, flexion and extension and buffer function, which ensures the stability and mobility of the lumbar spine after surgery. The present invention better resembles the normal physiology.

An expandable support device for tissue repair is disclosed. The device can be used to repair hard or soft tissue, such as bone or vertebral discs. The device can have multiple flat sides that remain flat during expansi A method of repairing tissue is also disclosed. Devices and methods for adjusting (e.g., removing, repositioning, resizing) deployed orthopedic expandable support devices are also disclosed. The expandable support devices can be engaged by an engagement device. The engagement device can longitudinally expand the expandable support device. The expandable support device can be longitudinally expanded until the expandable support device is substantially in a pre-deployed configuration. The expandable support device can be then be physically translated and/or rotated.
