DISPOSITIVO INTERSOMÁTICO DE SUPORTE DA BORDA CORTICAL. A presente invenção refere-se a um distrator central inflável que é inserido em um espaço de disco entre duas placas terminais vertebrais. Um balão de perímetro é inserido no espaço do disco de modo a circundar o distrator inflável central. O balão de perímetro e o distrator inflável central são expandidos simultaneamente de modo que, quando o distrator inflável central expande o balão de perímetro circunda o distrator inflável central e de modo que o distrator inflável central e o balão de perímetro, quando expandidos, contribuem para separar as placas terminais vertebrais adjacentes. An inflatable central distractor is inserted in to a disc space between two vertebral endplates. A perimeter balloon is inserted into the disc space in such a manner as to surround the central inflatable distractor. The perimeter balloon and the central inflatable distractor are simultaneously expanded such that as the central inflatable distractor expands the perimeter balloon surrounds the central inflatable distractor and such that the central inflatable distractor and the perimeter balloon, when expanded, contribute to forcing adjacent vertebral endplates apart.
