Abstract

A spinal column fixation device is disclosed. Generally, the device contains a pedicle screw (36) that has a first and second end. The first end of the screw has a threaded portion (40) and the second end has a spherical handle (48). Also included will be a clamping apparatus (16) that will clamp onto the spherical handle ends as well as having a receiving portion for placement of interconnecting rods. A novel intra-vertebral body wedge (180) is also included. Further, a method of stabilizing motion of a plurality of involved spinal diseased vertebrae with the spinal column fixation device and wedge, has been claimed.
