Zusammenfassung:	A packer assembly for use within a wellbore. The packer assembly may include a mandrel, a seal assembly disposed about the mandrel, an anti-extrusion assembly disposed about the mandrel proximate the seal assembly to prevent extrusion of the seal assembly, and a deployment system. The anti-extrusion assembly may include a cradle cone that may include a plurality of arcuate surfaces on an exterior of the cradle cone and a plurality of cradle arms. Each cradle arm may include a flexible tip and be positioned on a respective arcuate surface of the cradle cone. The deployment system may be operable to compress the seal assembly such that the seal assembly seals against a wellbore wall and to rotate the plurality of cradle arms such that the flexible tips of the cradle arms contact the wellbore wall to prevent extrusion of the seal assembly.
