An expandable device comprising, a body defining a bore, a shaft received in the bore of the body, an end plate coupled to the shaft, wherein rotation of the shaft translates the end plate with respect to the body, and a locking mechanism engaged with the shaft so as to permit the shaft to rotate in a first direction and apply a resistance force to resist the shaft when attempting to rotate in a second direction.

A pedicle fixation system () may include a first fastener () and a second fastener (). The first fastener () may include a first shank () extending along a first fastener axis () and a channel () extending along a skew axis (). The skew axis () may be transverse to the first fastener axis () and the channel () may have a channel diameter perpendicular to the skew axis (). The second fastener () may extend through the channel () and include a second shank () extending along a second fastener axis (). At least a distal part of the second shank () may have a second fastener diameter perpendicular to the second fastener axis (). The second fastener diameter may be smaller than the channel diameter.
