Abstract

A spinal fixation device for stabilizing one or more segments of the human spine and for preventing the dislodgement of intervertebral spinal fusion implants (40, 41); which remains permanently fixated once applied. The staple member (12) is of sufficient length to span the disc space (D) between two adjacent vertebrae (V), to engage via essentially perpendicular extending projections (16, 17), the vertebrae (V) adjacent to that disc: space (D).- A portion (14) of the staple member (12) interdigitates with an already implanted intervertebral spinal fusion implant (40) which itself spans the disc space (D) to engage the adjacent vertebrae (V). The spinal fixation device (10, 11) is bound to the spinal fusion implant (40) by a locking means (60). The spinal fixation device (10, 11) is for restraining the vertebrae (V) adjacent to the spinal fusion implant (40, 41) from moving apart as the spine is extended and also serves as as anchor for multi-segmental spinal alignment means (600) for aligning more than one segment of the spine.
