Abstract:
A growing rod for mounting between attachment mechanisms that are secured to anatomical structures of a patient having scoliosis. The growing rod includes an outer housing and an inner housing disposed within the outer housing. The inner housing includes a magnet assembly including a magnet having a first pole and a second pole and a gear reduction mechanism coupled to the magnet. A first rod is secured to the inner housing and a second rod is secured to the outer housing. The gear reduction mechanism reduces an output rotation of the magnet to rotate a driver that operates to move the inner housing along a longitudinal axis with respect to the outer housing.

Claim (Index 26):
The drive mechanism of  claim 22  the inner housing further comprising:\n an inner bearing that is disposed within an interior space of the inner housing, the inner bearing receiving the magnet; \n an outer bearing that it is received by the magnet assembly; and \n a bearing shoulder secured to the inner housing to retain the magnet assembly and the gear reduction mechanism within the inner housing such that the magnet assembly and gear reduction mechanism rotate freely within the inner housing.
