Abstract:
A surgical device has a shaft including a proximal portion and a distal portion being disposable with a surgical robot guide to engage vertebral tissue. The proximal portion defines a detectable marker and is connectable with at least one surgical instrument for manipulating the vertebral tissue. Systems, surgical instruments, spinal implants, constructs and methods are disclosed.

Claim (Index 14):
A method for treating a spine, the method comprising the steps of:\n engaging a distal portion of a surgical device with vertebral tissue via robotic guidance, the distal portion including a tap and a proximal portion including a detectable marker, the surgical device extending along a longitudinal axis between the distal portion and the proximal portion, the proximal portion comprising a wall having an inner surface and a proximal surface, proximal portion including first and second arms each extending proximally from the proximal surface, a first end of the first arm being spaced apart from a first end of the second arm by a first recess, a second end of the first arm being spaced apart from a second end of the second arm by a second recess, the inner surface of the wall and inner surfaces of the arms defining a cavity, the cavity having a first depth along the longitudinal axis and the recesses each have a second depth along the longitudinal axis, the first depth being greater than the second depth; connecting a surgical instrument with the proximal portion; and manipulating the surgical instrument to rotate a first vertebra of the vertebral tissue relative to a second vertebra.
