| 20080300685 | Posterior Total Joint Replacement - A prosthetic system for implantation between upper and lower vertebrae comprises an upper joint component. The upper joint component comprises an upper contact surface and an upper articulation surface. The system further includes a lower joint component. The lower joint component comprises a lower contact surface and a lower articulation surface configured to movably engage the upper articulation surface to form an articulating joint. The articulating joint is adapted for implantation within a disc space between the upper and lower vertebrae, allowing the upper and lower vertebrae to move relative to one another. The system further includes a bridge component extending posteriorly from one of either the upper or lower joint components and from the disc space. The bridge component has a distal end opposite the one of the either upper or lower joint components. The distal end of the bridge component comprises a connection component adapted to receive a fastener. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20090182429 | Total joint Replacement - An artificial vertebral joint for interposition between a superior vertebra and an inferior vertebra comprises a pair of bilateral joint subcomponents. Each joint subcomponent includes a superior component including a superior vertebra engaging surface and an inferior component including an inferior vertebra engaging surface. Each joint subcomponent further includes a spacer extending between the superior component and the inferior component. The spacer includes a first modulus of elasticity and a second modulus of elasticity. The first modulus transitions to the second modulus with a gradient change. | 07-16-2009 |

| 20100298938 | Spinal Device and Method - An artificial spinal joint, for creating at least a portion of a coupling between a superior vertebra and an inferior vertebra, comprises an anterior joint replacement component sized to extend into an intervertebral disc space between the superior and inferior vertebrae. The anterior joint replacement component includes a left anterior member separated and spaced apart from a right anterior member. The artificial spinal joint further comprises a bridge component coupled at a first end to the anterior joint replacement and sized to extend posteriorly outside the intervertebral disc space. The bridge component includes a left bridge member separated and spaced apart from a right bridge member. The artificial spinal joint further comprises a posterior joint replacement component coupled to a second end of the bridge component. The posterior joint replacement component includes a left posterior member separated and spaced apart from a right posterior member. | 11-25-2010 |

| 20110034929 | Devices and Methods for Cutting a Vertebral Implant - The present application is directed to devices and methods for cutting a spinal implant. In one embodiment, the device includes a handle and a head. The handle is sized to receive a predetermined length of the implant. A head is rotatably attached to the handle and includes a blade. After the implant is inserted into the handle, the head is rotated causing the blade to move around the implant and cut an excessive length from the predetermined length. | 02-10-2011 |
