ABSTRACT:
A system for setting cervical vertebrae from behind includes hooks (10) and plates (12) used together with a number of jointed segments or cylinders (1) crossed longitudinally and vertically by a web (4) housing a connecting wire (8) that can be tightened with a tightening device, and locked by a screw (7) lying crosswise to each segment (1). The system can be used to join all the required levels. Neither the point of insertion of the screws nor the position of the hooks are predetermined. This system can be used after laminectomy.
