Abstract:
Spinal tissue distraction devices that include a member which has a pre-deployed configuration for insertion between tissue layers and a deployed configuration in which the member, by change of configuration, forms a support structure for separating and supporting layers of spinal tissue

Claim (Index 66):
A method for treating the spine, comprising:\n advancing a distal end portion of an elongated guide member into spinal tissue in a substantially straight configuration; changing the distal end portion of the elongated guide member into a substantially helical configuration; advancing an elongated member along the distal end portion of the elongated guide member, the elongated member substantially conforming to the helical configuration of the distal end portion of the guide member so that the elongated member is formed into a substantially helical configuration comprising a plurality of coils defining an inner space; flowing a flowable material into the inner space defined by the coils.
