Abstract

A spinal prosthesis system (15) includes: an anterior portion (30) having an upper component (40) and a lower component (32), the upper and lower components capable of relative movement about a first point (38); a posterior portion separate from the anterior portion, c the posterior portion (46) having an upper portion (57) and a lower portion (48), the upper and lower portions capable of relative movement concentric to the upper and lower components about the first point. In another form, a method includes: determining a motion profile of a vertebral motion segment; determining a point of rotation based upon the motion profile; and manufacturing a spinal stabilization system having an anterior portion and a posterior portion, the anterior and posterior portions each having a center of rotation located at the point of rotation.
