Abstract:
A vertebral dynamic stabilization system is used to fix the positional relationship of adjacent vertebrae of the spine. The vertebrae′ stabilization system includes at least two pedicle screws(20), with an interconnecting rod (60) disposed therebetween, the pedicle screws each having a threaded shaft (24) to be screwed into a vertebra segment, and a screw head (30) adapted to securely receive the interconnecting rod. The system allows some compression and extension of the vertebrae relative to each other, while still maintaining the overall positional relationship within an appropriate range.
