ABSTRACT:
A spinal correction assembly of the type primarily designed to correct deformaties of deformity the spine such as curvatures of the spine also known as Scoliosis and/or Kyphosis. A frame is structured to have mounted thereon, a plurality of reduction arms which in turn support spine embracing hook elements whereby the aforementioned components are each structured for adjustable positioning for the purpose of reorienting the spine by applying preselected force at the opposite end of the affected curved portion of the spine and a force in the opposite direction along the length of the curved portion of the spine. These forces serve to reduce or effectively eliminate the curvature wherein the spine embracing hooks are maintained in fixed alignment to one another until additional surgical procedure such as bone grafting is completed and healed.
