Abstract:
A spinal plate system that makes it possible to check the extent to which a screw for anchoring the device to a vertebra is inserted in the vertebra is proposed. The spinal plate system includes a fixing plate having a plurality of first fastening holes formed through a surface thereof, a plurality of screws, which are respectively inserted into the plurality of first fastening holes and are threadedly coupled to a vertebra, and a locking rivet, which is disposed adjacent to the plurality of fastening holes and which comes into contact with first ends of the plurality of screws so as to hold the plurality of screws, the locking rivet including an elastic portion, which is elastically deformed by the plurality of screws when the screws are inserted into the fixing plate and which is elastically restored after the screws are completely inserted to a predetermined depth.
