Abstract

See full text

A spinal rod includes a central connector and first and second legs. The central connector has first and second ends. The first leg has first, second, and third sections. The first section of the first leg is directly coupled to the first end of the central connector. The second leg has first, second, and third sections. The first section of the second leg is directly coupled to the second end of the central connector. The second leg is spaced apart from the first leg to define a gap therebetween. The spinal rod defines a longitudinal axis and each of the second sections is parallel to the longitudinal axis in first and second planes that are orthogonal to one another. The first plane passes through each of the second sections which are each offset from the longitudinal axis. The second plane passes through the central connector and bisects the spinal rod.
