Devices for implantation into an intervertebral disc can include a membrane support member to augment a disc having a defect. A defect in the anulus of a disc can be repaired using a prosthesis such as a barrier. The barrier can include a sealant and an enlarger. The barrier can be implanted into the disc using a delivery cannula, an advancer and at least one control filament to control the positioning of the barrier. A stiffening element can be included within the barrier to impart stiffness to the barrier. The support member can also be connected to an anchor.
What is claimed is: 1. A method of supporting a weakened segment of an anulus fibrosus of an intervertebral disc, said method comprising:identifying a weakened segment of an anulus fibrosus of an intervertebral disc, wherein said weakened segment comprises a herniated segment;providing a first bioco
What is claimed is: 1. A method of supporting a weakened segment of an anulus fibrosus of an intervertebral disc, said method comprising:identifying a weakened segment of an anulus fibrosus of an intervertebral disc, wherein said weakened segment comprises a herniated segment;providing a first biocompatible support member;providing a second biocompatible support member;providing a connection member comprising a first end and a second end,wherein said connection member is configured to couple said first biocompatible support member and said second biocompatible support member and provide tension therebetween;securely establishing said first biocompatible support member to, within or posterior to said herniated segment;securely establishing said second biocompatible support member to, within or posterior to the anulus or a vertebral body;connecting said first biocompatible support member and said second biocompatible support member with said connection member;applying tension between said first biocompatible support member and said second biocompatible support member along said connection member and displacing said herniated segment to a pre-herniated border of the disc; andmaintaining said tension, thereby supporting said weakened segment.
