A dynamic stabilization, motion preservation spinal implant system includes an anchor system, a horizontal rod system and a vertical rod system. The systems are modular so that various constructs and configurations can be created and customized to a patient.
1. An anchor assembly comprising: an anchor body with an anchor;an anchor head including a U-shaped yoke having two arms;a first aperture in the first arm and a second aperture in the second arm; anda shaft spanning a gap between the two arms of the yoke;a saddle mounting element mounted about said
1. An anchor assembly comprising: an anchor body with an anchor;an anchor head including a U-shaped yoke having two arms;a first aperture in the first arm and a second aperture in the second arm; anda shaft spanning a gap between the two arms of the yoke;a saddle mounting element mounted about said shaft;a saddle having a transverse bore and a longitudinal bore which intersects the transverse bore;the saddle mounting element being received in the transverse bore of the saddle such that a portion of the saddle extends around the saddle mounting element between the saddle mounting element and the anchor head such that the saddle is secured to the anchor head and can move relative to the anchor head;said saddle having a slot adapted to hold a member;a set that is received in said saddle and can be selectively advanced into the slot;whereby, with a member received in the slot, advancing the set into the slot forces the member against the saddle mounting element thereby securing the member to the saddle and fixing the saddle relative to the anchor head. 2. The anchor assembly of claim 1 wherein said saddle mounting element comprises a ball having a bore through which the shaft is received. 3. The anchor assembly of claim 1 wherein said saddle mounting element comprises a bore through which said shaft is received and at least one slot through the surface; and said slot is adapted so that when the member is forced against the saddle mounting element, a dimension of the bore is changed such that the saddle mounting element is prevented from rotating about the shaft. 4. The anchor assembly of claim 1 wherein said saddle-mounting element has a textured surface to enhance fixing the saddle relative to the anchor head. 5. The anchor assembly of claim 1 wherein said saddle mounting element is spherical. 6. The anchor assembly of claim 1 wherein the saddle can move with three degrees of freedom about said saddle mounting element prior to locking the saddle relative to the anchor head. 7. The anchor assembly of claim 1 wherein the saddle mounting element is cylindrical. 8. An anchor assembly comprising: an anchor body with an anchor;an anchor head including a U-shaped yoke extending from the anchor body and a shaft spanning the yoke;a sphere mounted on the shaft in the yoke;a saddle mounted about the sphere such that a portion of the saddle extends around the sphere between the sphere and the anchor head;said saddle having a slot adapted to hold a member;a set received in said saddle and can selectively be advanced into the slot;whereby the anchor assembly is configured such that, with a member positioned in the slot, advancing the set into the slot applies force against the member and thereby applies force through the member to said sphere and there through to said shaft thereby securing the member to the saddle and securing the saddle relative to the anchor head. 9. The anchor assembly of claim 8 wherein said sphere comprises a bore through which said shaft is received and wherein the bore is adapted to engage the shaft to prevent rotation of the sphere about the shaft. 10. The anchor assembly of claim 8 wherein the saddle can move with three degrees of freedom about said sphere prior to locking the saddle relative to the anchor head. 11. An anchor assembly comprising: an anchor body having a longitudinal axis;an anchor head fixed to the anchor body;the anchor head including a U-shaped yoke;a shaft spanning the U-shaped-yoke;a ball mounted on the shaft inside the U-shaped yoke;a saddle having a transverse bore and a longitudinal bore which intersects the transverse bore;the ball and shaft being received through the transverse bore of the saddle such that a portion of the saddle extends around the ball between the ball and the anchor head such that the saddle is secured to the anchor head and can move relative to the anchor head;said saddle having a slot intersecting the longitudinal bore;a set that is received in said saddle and can be selectively advanced into the slot;said slot adapted to receive a rod;a compression unit and adapted to be located between the rod and the ball;whereby, with the rod received in the slot, advancement of the set into the slot forces the rod against the compression unit and forces the compression unit against the ball thereby securing the rod to the saddle and locking the saddle relative to the anchor head. 12. The anchor assembly of claim 11 wherein the saddle can move with three degrees of freedom about said saddle mounting element prior to locking the saddle relative to the anchor head. 13. An anchor assembly comprising: an anchor body with an anchor;an anchor head including a U-shaped yoke having two arms extending from the anchor body and a shaft spanning a gap between the two arms of the yoke;a saddle having a transverse bore and a longitudinal bore which intersects the transverse bore;the shaft being received in the transverse bore of the saddle such that a portion of the saddle extends around the shaft between the shaft and the anchor head such that the saddle is secured to the anchor head and can move relative to the anchor head;said saddle having a slot adapted to hold a member;a set that is received in said saddle and can be selectively advanced into the slot;whereby, with a member received in the slot, advancing the set into the slot forces the member against the shaft thereby securing the member to the saddle and fixing the saddle relative to the anchor head. 14. The anchor assembly of claim 13 wherein said shaft comprises a ball shaped element. 15. The anchor assembly of claim 13 wherein the saddle can move with three degrees of freedom about said shaft prior to locking the saddle relative to the anchor head. 16. An anchor assembly comprising: an anchor body with an anchor;an anchor head including a U-shaped yoke extending from the anchor body and a shaft spanning the yoke;a saddle mounted about the shaft such that a portion of the saddle extends around the shaft between the shaft and the anchor head;said saddle having a slot adapted to hold a member;a set received in said saddle and can selectively be advanced into the slot;whereby the anchor assembly is configured such that, when a member is positioned in the slot, advancing the set into the slot applies force against the member and thereby applies force through the member to said shaft thereby securing the member to the saddle and securing the saddle relative to the anchor head. 17. The anchor assembly of claim 16 wherein the saddle can move with three degrees of freedom about said shaft prior to locking the saddle relative to the anchor head. 18. An anchor assembly comprising: an anchor body having a longitudinal axis;an anchor head fixed to the anchor body;the anchor head including a U-shaped yoke;a shaft spanning the U-shaped-yoke;a saddle having a transverse bore and a longitudinal bore which intersects the transverse bore;the shaft being received through the transverse bore of the saddle such that a portion of the saddle extends around the shaft between the shaft and the anchor head such that the saddle is secured to the anchor head and can move relative to the anchor head;said saddle having a slot intersecting the longitudinal bore;a set that is received in said saddle and can be selectively advanced into the slot;said slot adapted to receive a rodwhereby, with the rod received in the slot, advancement of the set into the slot forces the rod against the shaft thereby securing the rod to the saddle and locking the saddle relative to the anchor head. 19. The anchor assembly of claim 18 wherein the saddle can move with three degrees of freedom about said shaft prior to locking the saddle relative to the anchor head.
