A universal and eccentric fixation mechanism for an orthopedic surgery comprises a universal receiving seat, an eccentric collar, a rod body, and an urging and fixing element. The eccentric collar is received in a spherical hollow receiving seat of the universal receiving seat and provided with an urging slit. The eccentric collar has a hollow portion in which the rod body is held such that one end of the rod body is fastened with a bone fixing element. The slit of the eccentric collar can be urged to close by the urging and fixing element so that the rod body is held securely in the hollow portion of the eccentric collar. The hollow portion of the eccentric collar is cylindrical in shape and has an axis deviating from the spherical center of the eccentric collar of a spherical construction.

A universal eccentric fixation mechanism for orthopedic surgery comprising: a lateral fixation block including a first portion provided with a through hole adapted to receive a vertebral fixation rod and a second portion defining a universal receiving seat provided therein with a hollow receiving seat of a spherical construction, the first portion of said lateral fixation block including a slit that leads to said universal receiving seat such that said lateral fixation block has first and second sections split by said slit and interconnected by said universal receiving seat; an eccentric collar of a spherical construction and dimensioned to fit into said hollow receiving seat of said universal receiving seat, said eccentric collar having a hollow portion and an urging slit extending through said eccentric collar to said hollow portion, said eccentric collar having a central longitudinal axis that passes through a spherical center thereof; a bone fixing element having a first portion held in the hollow portion of said eccentric collar and a second portion adapted to be secured to a bone; and an urging and fixing means for urging the first and second sections of said lateral fixation block together and indirectly forcing said eccentric collar towards a substantially closed position so that said bone fixing element is held securely and intimately in said hollow portion of said eccentric collar; wherein said hollow portion of said eccentric collar is cylindrical in shape and has an associated longitudinal axis that is offset from said central longitudinal axis of said eccentric collar.
