An instrument includes an outer sleeve, an inner sleeve positioned in the outer sleeve, a latch coupled to the inner sleeve, a knob coupled to the inner sleeve and a lever coupled to the knob and to the latch. An inner sheath extends through an outer sheath and includes an end positioned between the inner sleeve and the shaft. The inner sheath includes a groove. The knob is movable relative to the inner sleeve to move the instrument between a first orientation in which the latch is positioned in the groove and the inner sheath is prevented from translating relative to the inner sleeve and a second orientation in which the latch is spaced apart from the groove and the inner sheath is translatable relative to the inner sleeve. Systems, implants and methods are disclosed.

A surgical system comprises at least one implant support including a first implant support that is engageable with a receiver of a first fastener having a shaft fixed with vertebral tissue. At least one adaptor includes a first adaptor extending longitudinally along and being engageable with the first implant support. The first adaptor is rotatable relative to the first implant support to connect the first implant support with a surgical instrument to manipulate the vertebral tissue. Surgical instruments, constructs, implants and methods are disclosed.

An anchor extender can be couplable to a bone anchor and can include an outer sleeve, an inner sleeve, and a lock. The lock can be operable to translate the inner sleeve relative to the outer sleeve between a locked position and an unlocked position to secure the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve to a head of the bone anchor in the locked position and to release the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve from the head of the bone anchor in the unlocked position.

A clamp assembly for orthopedic use having a housing that includes a top surface, a recess, a distal base and a bottom surface, the recess defining a longitudinal axis and extending through the housing from the top surface through the distal base and toward the bottom surface, and at least two through slots, each one of being disposed at a bottom or a side a surface of the housing. The assembly including a securement assembly positionable within the recess in a co-axial relationship to a mating surface on the recess, and a band sized for travel along a predetermined path defined in part by the through slots in the housing, wherein at least one of the through slots is a starting point for travel of the band along the predetermined path.

A spinal construct comprises at least one member that defines a first implant cavity and a second implant cavity oriented transverse to the first implant cavity. The at least one member has a surface that includes a lock disposed with the first implant cavity. Systems, implants, surgical instruments and methods of use are disclosed.

A surgical instrument for reducing a rod into a saddle of a fixation member includes a distal end for engaging the saddle and a proximal end. A reducing device is disposed between the distal end and the proximal end. The reducing device is operative to reduce the rod into the saddle. The reducing device defines a throughbore. The throughbore provides access there through by a first drive member to secure a plug to the saddle.

This application describes surgical instruments and implants for building a posterior fixation construct across one or more segments of the spinal column. More specifically, the application describes instruments and methods for building a posterior fixation construct across one or more segments of the spinal column in a minimally invasive fashion.

A system for reducing deformities of the vertebrae in the spine includes a first reduction assembly, a second reduction assembly, and a reduction drive assembly. The first reduction assembly is configured for attachment to a first reduction tower that attaches to a first vertebra. The second reduction assembly is configured for attachment to a second reduction tower that attaches to a second vertebra. The reduction drive assembly includes an arcuate rack gear operably coupling the first reduction assembly to the second reduction assembly to translate the first reduction assembly relative to the second reduction assembly along an arcuate path in a first plane.

A sleeve can be adapted to reinforce a bone anchor, and can include a body, a lock, and an actuator. The body can include a first sleeve arm and a second sleeve arm, where each can extend longitudinally along opposing sides of a longitudinal bore open at a distal end of the sleeve. The lock can be coupled to the body and releasably securable to a channel of a head of the bone anchor to secure the sleeve to the anchor.

A device for spinal correction includes a stabilizer assembly including a hinge including a first rod-bearing leaf; a second rod-bearing leaf rotatably coupled to the first rod-bearing leaf to provide coronal or sagittal freedom of movement, or both, of the stabilizer assembly; a locking mechanism to lock the first and second rod-bearing leaves at a desired angle; a first stabilizing rod coupled to the first rod-bearing leaf; a second stabilizing rod coupled to the second rod-bearing leaf; and a plurality of monoaxial or polyaxial links, wherein each monoaxial or polyaxial link is movably coupled to the first or second stabilizing rod and is movably couplable to a first spinal rod or a second spinal rod fixed to the spine; wherein the stabilizer assembly is couplable to the first or second spinal rod to stabilize the spine to prevent compression, distraction, or translation of the spinal cord during a spinal correction.
