Abstract
A spiral growth tether system may be securable to a bone having a growth plate that separates a first portion of the bone from a second portion of the bone. The spiral growth tether system may include a tether including a first end configured to be secured to the first portion, a second end configured to be secured to the second portion, and a central portion between the first end and the second end. The first end and the second end may be configured to separate at the central portion in response to the first end being urged away from the second end as a result of growth of the bone urging the first portion away from the second portion.
