Field, D. C., Freeman, D. B., Smisson III, H. F., Ovington, T., & VanHiel, B. (2020). Convertible dynamic interspinous process devices and methods for spinal surgery. (U.S. Patent No. US11553946B2). https://patents.google.com/patent/US11553946B2/
A dynamic interspinous process device for implantation with respect to a first vertebra and an adjacent second vertebra is provided. The dynamic interspinous process device may include a first attachment side and a second attachment side. Each of the first attachment side and second attachment side may include a central portion, a first wing extending from the central portion, a second wing extending from the central portion, and one or more slots extending from an interior side of the respective attachment side to an exterior side of the respective attachment side. The one or more slots of the respective attachment side may be configured to allow the first wing and the second wing to move relative to one another in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the dynamic interspinous process device.
