A dynamic stabilization, motion preservation spinal implant system includes an anchor system, a horizontal rod system and a vertical rod system. The systems are modular so that various constructs and configurations can be created and customized to a patient.

There is disclosed a method of balancing a joint during a surgical procedure, to both maximize the range of motion of the joint and to reduce the likelihood of follow-up procedures. The method includes outputting a signal including a first data set associated with at least one of a force, a position, a displacement or a rotation associated with an apparatus disposed between a first bony structure and a second bony structure, the apparatus including a first portion configured to be coupled to the first bony structure, a second portion configured to be disposed between the first portion and the second bony structure, and a transducer and an actuator disposed between the first portion and the second portion. The method additionally includes outputting a signal including a second data set, the second data set associated with at least one of a force, a position, a displacement or a rotation associated with the apparatus after the performance of at least a part of a surgical procedure, the surgical procedure based at least in part on a recommendation based on the first data set.
