Abstract
An inventive iliac connector comprises a connector head () and a connecting rod () for connecting a sacrum (S) or a spine (SP) to an ilium (I). The connector head () has a first hole () for holding a spinal rod () and a second hole () for holding the connecting rod (), wherein the connecting rod () is made of a material being more flexible than titanium. This iliac connector enables a stabilization of ilium, sacrum and spine and enables at the same time movement between ilium and sacrum.
