  • Patent number: 9358122
    Abstract: An interbody spacer includes a connecting portion and a pair of leg portions extending from the connecting portion. The connecting portion and the pair of leg portions define top and bottom surfaces configured and adapted to engage first and second vertebral bodies, respectively, and inner and outer sidewalls extending between the top and bottom surfaces. In particular, the top and bottom surfaces of the leg portions include first projections defining a first angle with the respective top and bottom surfaces of the leg portions. The top and bottom surfaces of the connecting portion include second projections defining a second angle with the respective top and bottom surfaces of the connecting portion. The first and second angles are different.

  • Patent number: 8801791
    Abstract: A spinal spacer for engagement between vertebrae includes a body having a substantially contoured first end surface at a distal end and a second end surface opposite thereto at a proximal end. The body extends between the first and second end surfaces to define top and bottom vertebral engaging surfaces that are opposed to one another. The body extends between the top and bottom vertebral engaging surfaces to define opposed side surfaces. The top and bottom vertebral engaging surfaces intersect with the side surfaces to provide a substantially quadrilateral cross-section with rounded corners. The top and bottom vertebral engaging surfaces have a substantially streamlined convex profile. The surfaces converge at the distal end to define a substantially atraumatic blunt nose having a tip configured with planar and/or convex surfaces.
