Abstract:
Expandable spinal fixation assemblies, systems, and methods thereof. An expandable spinal fixation system may include expandable barrel assembly including an upper barrel half and a lower barrel half and a fixed barrel assembly. The fixed barrel assembly is insertable between the upper barrel half and the lower barrel half such that the fixed barrel assembly is clamped between the upper barrel half and the lower barrel half. Each of the expandable barrel assembly and the fixed barrel assembly includes fixation plates adapted to secure spinous processes to the fixation system.

Claim (Index 12):
An expandable spinal fixation system comprising:\n a first longitudinal member; a second longitudinal member, the second member being disposed generally parallel to the first longitudinal member; a first lateral member, the first lateral member coupled to the first and the second longitudinal members; a second lateral member, the second lateral member disposed generally parallel to the first lateral member, the second lateral member coupled to the first and the second longitudinal members, wherein the first longitudinal member has an upper portion and a lower portion and the second longitudinal member has an upper portion and a lower portion, wherein the first lateral member is coupled to the upper portions of the first and second longitudinal members, wherein the second lateral member is coupled to the upper portions of the first and second longitudinal members, and wherein the first lateral member and the second lateral member are movable with respect to each other.
