Abstract:
A tool set for implanting a rod in a human spine in conjunction with bone screws.

Claim (Index 18):
An elongate guide tool in combination with a spinal bone screw implant, the guide tool being reversibly attachable to the bone screw for guiding a rod into a receiver of the bone screw, the bone screw receiver including a pair of upright arms defining a channel therebetween, each upright arm having a top surface and an outer surface, the guide tool comprising:\n an inner tool adapted to at least partially receive each of the upright arms, the inner tool comprising first inwardly projecting attachment structures near a bottom inner tool opening, the first inwardly projecting attachment structures sized and shaped to cooperatively engage horizontally extending radiused grooves disposed on the outer surfaces of the upright arms; and an outer tool comprising shaped to receive the inner tool body such that the outer tool body is longitudinally translatable relative to the inner tool body and comprising second inwardly projecting attachment structures near a bottom outer tool opening, the second inwardly projecting attachment structures sized and shaped to cooperatively engage radially extending slots formed in the top surfaces of the upright arms, each radially extending slot extending along the top surface of a respective upright arm from the channel to the outer surface of the respective upright arm, wherein the inner tool is rotatable about the longitudinal axis to reversibly engage the first inwardly projecting attachment structures with the horizontally extending radiused grooves of the upright arms, and wherein, when the first inwardly projecting attachment structures are engaged with the horizontally extending radiused grooves, the outer tool is longitudinally translatable along the longitudinal axis relative to the inner tool to reversibly engage the second inwardly projecting attachment structures with the radially extending slots.
