Definitions
- This invention relates generally to separators for approximated bones
- the invention also relates to intervertebral body separators.
- the invention also relates to intervertebral body separators.
- the bone surface is essential to the proper performance of the functional implant device to be inserted.
- the balloon through a very small opening, to inflate it to a much larger size than
- the invention compromises an inflatable
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- pressure factor can be computed for any given joint space, and the balloon sized
- the shape of the balloon is configured in a somewhat rectilinear or
- the non-compliant (PET) sides limit the expansion of the balloon except in those areas of the opposing bones with the sides of the balloon being of such length as to allow the balloon jack to
- the stem assembly to the balloon must be of significant thickness to
- the invention comprises an inflatable
- the insertable balloon catheter is preferably made of non- compliant polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and is fashioned in its shape and size
- the predetermined geometric shape conforms to the surrounding
- the surgical technique such that the surgeon may inflate the balloon through the stem while the hands are well free of the wound
- Figure 1 is an isometric view of the novel balloon jack in its deflated
- Figure 2 is an isometric view of the novel balloon jack in its inflated condition
- Figure 3 is a fragmentary elevational view showing the balloon jack in its
- Figure 4 is an isometric view of the enplaced balloon jack
- the balloon jack stem and a pressure-supplying syringe.
- the balloon jack can be inflated in the intervertebral disc space by liquid or gas delivered through a syringe 15 attached to the stem 12. Later, the balloon jack may be deflated and removed. Maintenance of the intervertebral disc
- balloon jack to occupy the maximum area available between the opposing bones so as to spread the force over the maximum area, thereby decreasing bone
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
