Definitions
- the human spine is a biomechanical structure consisting of thirty-three vertebral members and is responsible for protecting the spinal cord, nerve roots and internal organs of the thorax and abdomen.
- the spine also provides structural support for the body while permitting flexibility of motion.
- it is necessary to secure together two or more of the vertebral members. The procedure may be necessary for example as a result of physical trauma or degenerative diseases.
- One type of surgical procedure includes attachment of a vertebral plate to the vertebral members.
- the vertebral plate is sized to extend across two or more of the vertebral members.
- One or more bone screws extend through apertures in the plate and into the vertebral members to secure the plate.
- One issue with the attachment is the screws may tend to loosen and back-out of the vertebral members. Screw retention devices may be necessary to prevent the screw from backing-out of the vertebral members.
- One type of screw retention device utilizes a snap ring that expands as the screw is inserted into the aperture and then retracts to a smaller diameter once the screw head has passed the level of the snap ring.
- One issue with previous snap ring designs is the inability to use the rings with a variety of different screws. These designs may not be effective for both variable angle and fixed angle screws, or require specialty screws that are design for only a limited application. Additionally, these previous designs have needed a larger plate thickness to accommodate the snap ring. Another issue is the difficultly for the surgeon to visually see when the lock ring has moved over the top of the screw once the screw has passed the level of the snap ring. Some designs also prevent or limit the ability of the surgeon to tactilely feel the movement of the snap ring as it moves over the top of the screw.
- the present invention is directed to a system and method of retaining screws within a vertebral plate and prevent screw back-out.
- the invention includes a variety of embodiments, with one embodiment having a plate with at least one aperture for receiving a screw.
- a cavity is positioned within the plate and partially overlaps into the aperture.
- a ring is positioned within the cavity and held in position by a cap. The ring is resilient and changes shape between an original shape that extends partially over the aperture, and a deflected shape away from the aperture.
- One method includes positioning a resilient member within a cavity in the plate such that it partially extends over the aperture.
- the next step comprises placing a cap over the cavity and attaching the cap to the plate to prevent the resilient member from being removed from the plate.
- the next step includes inserting a screw into the aperture and deflecting the resilient member away from the aperture. The screw is inserted into the vertebral member a predetermined distance, and the resilient member is returned to its original shape over the aperture and over the screw to prevent the screw from backing-out of the aperture.

- Figure 8 is a rear perspective view of the plate with caps mounted within the cavities adjacent to the screw-receiving apertures according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- the present invention is directed to a retention system for maintaining the position of a screw 70 relative to a vertebral plate 20.
- Figure 1 illustrates one embodiment of a vertebral plate 20 having one or more apertures 21.
- a cavity 22 is positioned adjacent to and overlaps into the aperture 21.
- a ring 50 is positioned within the cavity 22 and held in position by a cap 30.
- the cap 30 attaches to the plate 20 to prevent removal of the ring 50.
- the ring 50 is resilient and changes shape between an original shape that extends over an aperture 21 to prevent screw back-out, and a deflected shape that allows insertion and removal of the screw from the aperture 21 (see Figures 4 and 5).
- the plate 20 is sized to extend across one or more vertebral members 100.
- Apertures 21 extend through the plate 20 between a top surface 23 and a bottom surface 24 to receive the bone screws 70.
- the apertures 21 may have a variety of sizes and orientations depending upon the specific application.
- the cavity 22 is positioned adjacent to the aperture 21 and includes a counterbore 29 that extends inward into the plate 20 from the top surface 23.
- the cavity 22 may extend entirely through the plate 20, or may extend only a limited distance into the plate 20 from the top surface 23.
- a depth that the counterbore 29 extends into the top surface 23 may likewise vary depending upon the application.
- the counterbore 29 may form an upper ledge 25 to accommodate the ring 50 as will be explained later.
- the cavity 22 and counterbore 29 are co- axially aligned and each has a substantially circular shape. Various other shapes may also be employed and are contemplated by the present invention.
- the cavity 22 and counterbore 29 are both centered within the medial plane M of the plate 20.
- the plate 20 may have both a medial and lordotic curve to conform to the dimensions of the vertebral members 100.
- the cavity 22 may further include elements to assist with retaining the cap 30.
- a second counterbore 28 may be formed in the bottom surface 24 of the plate 20.
- FIGS 2 and 3 illustrate front and rear perspective views of the cap 30 removed from the plate 20.
- the cap 30 includes a flange 31 and an outwardly extending plug 34.
- the flange 31 includes an upper surface 32 and a lower surface 33. When mounted in the plate 20, the flange 31 seats within the counterbore 29 with the upper surface 32 substantially flush with the top surface 23 of the plate 20.
- the plug 34 has a width generally corresponding to the size of the cavity 22. Ears 36 and slots 39 may be positioned at the edge of the plug 34 opposite the flange 31 and mate with the lower counterbore 28.
- a window 37 may be formed in the plug 34 and provide a contact point for grasping and manipulating the cap 30 and/or plate 20 during a surgical procedure.
- the window 37 may also be used for location and orientation of surgical instruments, such as plate holders, drills, taps, and screw guides.
- the window 37 may extend through the entire cap 30, or may extend only a limited distance inward from the upper surface 32 of the flange 31.
- the window 37 may have a shape to allow medial alignment of the plate 20, such as the oval shape illustrated in the Figures.
- the cap 30 is attached to the plate 20 and maintains the ring 50 within the cavity 22.
- a variety ofmeans may be used for attaching the cap 30 to the plate 20, including for example, interference fit, snap fit, staking, and swaging.
- the cap 30 has external threads along the plug 34 that mate with threads on the inner wall of the cavity 22.
- the cap 30 may also be attached via a removable or non-removable fastener, such as screw, rivet, and the like.
- Figures 4 and 5 illustrate one method of attaching the cap 30 to the plate 20.
- the external features of the plug 34 are sized to contact the sidewall of the cavity 22 and provide an interference fit. Additionally, the ears 36 extend outward into the lower counterbore 28 to further secure the cap 30.
- the ears 36 may be deformed into the lower counterbore 28 during the manufacturing process or alternatively by the surgeon or other medical personnel prior to or during the surgery.
- the ears 36 are grasped by a tool and bent outward away from the cavity thus enlarging the width and preventing the cap 30 from being removed from the plate 20.
- the cap 30 is constructed of a resilient material. When inserted into the cavity 22, the ears 36 resiliently rebound outward into the counterbore 28.
- the position of the ears 36 within the counterbore 28 are illustrated in Figures 4 and 5.
- Ears 36A illustrate the mounting of the adjacent upper cap 30 (i.e., the cap 30 positioned adjacent to the cross-sectionally cut middle cap 30). In these embodiments, the cap 30 may be retained by only the interference fit, only the deformed ears 36, or by both.
- the ring 50 is positioned within the cavity 22 to prevent back-out of the screw 70.
- the ring 50 is constructed of a resilient spring material that is elastic and deflectable between an original shape when mounted in the cavity 22 that extends outward into the aperture 21, and a deflected state away from the aperture 21 to allow removal and insertion of the screw 70 relative to the aperture 21.
- Figure 6 illustrates one embodiment of the ring 50 having a substantially circular shape with inner and outer diameters and a compression slot 51 formed between first and second ends 52, 53.
- Ring 50 has upper and lower surfaces with the lower surface positioned towards the upper ledge 25 of the counterbore 29. In one embodiment, the lower surface is substantially flat to contact the screw 70 when the ring 50 extends into the aperture 21.
- Figure 6 illustrates one embodiment of ring 50 having a rectangular cross-sectional shape. Another embodiment features a triangular cross-sectional shape.
- the ring 50 may be constructed of a material having elastic properties.
- the ring 50 is made of a Nickel-Titanium alloy that is heat treated to achieve superelastic properties when exposed to a temperature range within the human body.
- the ring 50 may also be constructed of other materials, for example, peek, titanium, or stainless steel.
- the term "ring” is used broadly herein to refer to the member positioned within the cavity. It is understood that the member may have a variety of different shapes and sizes.
- the diameter of the counterbore 29 is less than an outer diameter of the ring 50. This causes the ring 50 to be pre-loaded in the original shape when seated in the counterbore 29.
- the pre-loaded condition causes the compression slot 51 to be reduced and gives the ring 50 additional expansion force to extend outward over the aperture 21.
- the amount of deflection of the ring 30 may vary depending upon the application. Deflection may occur on one side of the ring 30, or on both sides such as would occur in an embodiment as illustrated in Figures 1, 4, and 5 as both screws 70 were being inserted.
- Figure 7 illustrates one embodiment of the screw 70 and includes a head 71, shelf 72, spherical radius 73 and shaft 74.
- the shelf 72 extends outward beyond the head 71 and provides a platform for receiving the ring 50.
- the shelf 72 may be substantially flat to provide a good contacting surface for the flat surface of the ring 50.
- the spherical radius 73 has a maximum width at the shelf 72 and reduces to a minimum width at the shaft 74.
- Figures 1, 4, and 5 illustrate one embodiment of the invention having a cavity 22 positioned between and overlapping into two apertures 21.
- Each of the apertures 21 and cavities 22 has a substantially circular shape with the cavity 22 having a counterbore 29 that overlaps into the apertures.
- the ring 50 has an original shape that extends outward and overlaps into the apertures 21, and a deflected shape in a non-overlapping position away from the aperture 21.
- the ring 50 is in the original shapeprior to screw insertion, and after the screw 70 has been inserted into the aperture 21 and the shelf 72 passes below the level of the ring 50.
- Figure 4 illustrates the ring 50 in the original shape where the shelf 72 is below the level of the ring 50.
- the resilient nature of the ring 50 causes it to return toward the original shape and extend over the shelf 72.
- the ring 50 position prior to screw insertion is illustrated within the middle cavity 22 and apertures 21 of the plate 20 in Figure 1.
- the insertion and removal of the screw 70 from the aperture 21 causes the ring 50 to deflect and move away from the aperture 21.
- One example is illustrated within the left screw 70 illustrated in Figure 5.
- the force of the insertion or removal deflects the ring 50 inward from the aperture 21 and further into the counterbore 29.
- the ring 50 overlaps into the apertures 21 a distance once the screw 70 has been inserted to prevent back-out of the screw 70.
- the ring 50 extends outward beyond the edge of the cap flange 31 to allow visual confirmation of the position by a surgeon. This may further be assisted by coloring the ring 50 and screw 70 with contrasting colors to make it easier to visually observe the relative position of these elements.
- the cap flange 31 may have a shape that conforms to the adjacent aperture 21 and prevents the flange 31 from extending over the aperture 21 when the cap 30 is mounted to the plate 20. As illustrated in Figures 2 and 3, the flange 31 has curved edges 38 that conform to the outer circumference of the aperture 21.
- the flange 31 does not overlap into the aperture 21 while still allowing the ring 50 to overlap into the aperture 21.
- the ring 50 is positioned in the space created between the cap 30 and cavity 21. In one embodiment, both the cap 30 and ring 50 are co-axially aligned within the cavity 22.
- a tab 35 extends outward from the cap 30 to fit within the ring slot 51 and prevent rotation of the ring 50.
- the tab 35 includes first and second edges that are distanced apart to fit within the slot 51 of the ring 50. This prevents rotation of the ring 50 to a position where the slot 51 is over the aperture 21 and potentially allows the screw 70 to back-out.
- Tab 35 seats against the upper ledge 25 of the counterbore 29 when the cap 30 is in the cavity 22.
- the spherical radius 73 contacts the ring 50 and deflects it away from the aperture 21.
- the ring 50 is further deflected from its original shape and away from the aperture 21.
- the ring 50 returns towards the original shape to extend over the shelf 72.
- the snapping action of the ring 50 extending over the shelf 72 may be tactilely detected by the surgeon and provide assurance that the ring 50 is seated over the screw 70 to prevent back-out.
- the elastic property of the ring 50 causes a snapping action as the screw passes and does not require the surgeon to proactively engage the ring 50.
- the device includes the ring 50 attached to the cap 30.
- the ring 50 and cap 30 combination may be a single integral piece, or the ring 50 may be a separate piece that is fixedly attached to the cap 30.
- the combination positions the ring 50 over the apertures 21 in the original shape and allows the ring 50 to be deflected upon screw 70 insertion and removal.
- the original shape of the ring 50 is positioned to extend over one or more apertures 21. This original shape may not be the neutral position of the ring 50.
- the shape of the ring 50 may be constrained by the counterbore 29 and have a smaller outer width than if the ring 50 were more freely positioned within a larger space. Additionally, the ring 50 may be in a more deflected state when it returns over the aperture
- screw 70 is in the original shape and extends over the aperture 21 a first amount.
- ring 50 deflects away from the aperture 21 to a second shape.
- ring 50 snaps back over the screw 70 to a third shape.
- This third shape may be the same as the original shape, or may be different depending on the position and size of the screw.
- the ring 50 may contact the screw head 71 in the third shape and prevent the ring 50 from fully returning to its original shape.
- the ring 50 may further deflect along a single side, or along more than one side. In the embodiment illustrated in Figures 1, 4, and 5, ring 50 extends into two apertures 21 and therefore can be deflected along two separate sides as screws 70 are inserted into the respective apertures 21. In another embodiment where the ring 50 extends only into a single aperture 21, the ring 50 will deflect along a single side.
- vertebral member is used generally to describe the vertebral geometry comprising the vertebral body, pedicles, lamina, and processes.
- the device may be sized and shaped, and have adequate strength requirements to be used within the different regions of the vertebra including the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions.
- Figure 1 is included in part to illustrate the relative positioning of the plate 20, ring 50, and cap 30. Neither a cap 30 or ring 50 are attached to the upper cavity 22 to illustrate the position of the cavity 22 and counterbore 29 relative to the adjacent apertures 21. A cap 30 and ring 50 are mounted in the middle cavity to illustrate the ring 50 extending outward into the adjacent apertures 21 when there are no screws 70. The lower cavity 22 illustrates the cap 30 and ring 50 in an exploded view.
- the present invention may be carried out in other specific ways than those herein set forth without departing from the scope and essential characteristics of the invention.
- the ring 50 may also have a circular, oval, or elongated cross-sectional shape.
- the ears 36 are positioned within the lower counterbore 28 and are either flush or recessed within the bottom surface 24 of the plate so as not to interfere with positioning on the vertebral member 100.
- the ring 50 extends over the screw head 71 to prevent screw back-out.
- the screw 70 may or may not include a shelf 72 and spherical radius 73.
- the plug 34 and flange 31 form an angle of about 90°.
- a center of the cavity 22 is positioned along a line formed between the centers of the two apertures 21.
