Abstract:
A rod-shaped implant for the dynamic stabilization of the spine includes at least a portion having a flexible first material forming a matrix in which a flexible structure having at least one fiber made of a second material is embedded. The rod-shaped implant can be compressed and extended along the longitudinal axis of the rod-shaped implant while it provides a high torsional stiffness.
