Content

Accordingly, in certain embodiments, the holes of the first bone attachment feature 1006 and second bone attachment feature 1008 and the cross-section diameter of the fasteners 1012 used with the first bone attachment feature 1006 and second bone attachment feature 1008 are sized to withstand these forces. For example, in one embodiment, the holes may be sized to accommodate fasteners 1012 having cross-section diameters of between about 0.8 millimeters to about 2.0 millimeters. Furthermore, the diameter of the holes of the first bone attachment feature 1006 and second bone attachment feature 1008 may be just larger than the diameters of the fasteners 1012 such that the two fit together in a “close fit.” Those of skill in the art will appreciate that the diameters of the holes in the first bone attachment feature 1006 and second bone attachment feature 1008 and the fasteners 1012 can very depending on the diameter of the bone or bones that the fasteners 1012 are deployed into. Smaller diameter bones will use smaller diameter fasteners 1012 and larger diameter bones will use larger diameter fasteners 1012.
