A surgical system includes a first surgical instrument having a selected configuration and an image guide disposed relative to a sensor to communicate a signal representative of a position of the image guide. A passive image guide is fixed with vertebral tissue and is disposed relative to the sensor to communicate a signal representative of a position of the passive image guide. The passive image guide includes a first surface. A second surgical instrument is connectable with the first surgical instrument and includes a second surface engageable with the first surface in a mating configuration to provide verification of the selected configuration. Surgical instruments, implants, spinal constructs and methods are disclosed.

Surgical instrument and method

A surgical system includes a trial connected with a first image guide oriented relative to a sensor to communicate a signal representative of the trial relative to a patient anatomy. A tracking device includes the sensor and communicates with a processor to generate a storable image of the trial relative to the patient anatomy for display from a monitor. A spinal implant is connected with a second image guide oriented relative to the sensor to communicate a signal representative of the spinal implant relative to the patient anatomy. The sensor receives the signal of the second image guide and communicates with the processor to generate an image of the spinal implant in real time for display from the monitor in a configuration to align the spinal implant in real time with the stored image of the trial. In some embodiments, methods, spinal constructs, implants and surgical instruments are disclosed.

Spinal implant system and methods of use

A spinal implant template includes a shaft extending along an axis between a proximal end and a distal end. An engagement portion is configured for insertion between vertebrae of a patient. The engagement portion includes a rod extending from the distal end at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis to facilitate ease of entry around a spinal cord of the patient. Systems, surgical instruments, spinal implants and methods are disclosed.
