Abstract:
A facet distraction prosthesis ( 10, 30 ) includes an array of facet distraction base elements ( 12, 32 ) connected to each other by one or more connector elements ( 14, 34 ). A pair of diagonally adjacent base elements ( 12, 32 ) are connected to each other by a set of or more connector elements ( 14, 34 ) which intersects with another set of one or more connector elements ( 14, 34 ) that connects another pair of diagonally adjacent base elements ( 12, 32 ). The connector elements ( 14, 34 ) are flexible so that the base elements ( 12, 32 ) can flex with respect to each other and adapt to a geometry of a facet joint.

Claim (Index 19):
The joint prosthesis according to  claim 13 , wherein side walls of said base elements are slanted from upper and lower surfaces towards a middle thereof.
