Midline Occipital Vertebral Fixation System

摘要

The present invention relates to an occipital plating system having a plate extending along the longitudinal axis. The plate includes at least one coupling member (coupling element) which is deviated in a lateral direction relative to the longitudinal axis of the engaging plate and the larynx. The coupling member is elongated along a portion of the length of the plate. At least one coupling member includes a passage (passage) for receiving a connecting element (connecting element). The coupling member is configured to tighten the portion of the length of the connecting element arranged in the passage inwardly to the lateral direction. ; Occipital plating system, a plate, a coupling member, connecting element, the passage
