ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a staiblizing device (150) designed to link two vertebrae, comprising at least two chambers (156, 158, 186, 188) arranged proximate to said vertebrae, said chambers containing a shock absorbing fluid. Means (192, 194) are provided for providing fluid communication with controlled flow between said two chambers, thereby adequately damping the patient's movements.
