Abstract: An expandable bi-dimensional intervertebral implant for an intervertebral fusion is provided. The implant includes a first hinge arm, a second hinge arm connected to the first hinge arm, and a translation member movable relative to the first hinge arm and the second hinge arm between an initial position and an engaged position. The second hinge arm is movable between a primary position and a secondary position relative to the first hinge arm. In the engaged position, the translation member biases the first hinge arm to move from a first position to a second position and biases the second hinge arm to move between a first position and a second position.
Abstract: An expandable intervertebral implant for an intervertebral fusion is provided. The implant includes a first endplate, a second endplate, a translation member and an auger mounted to the translation member and extending through the second endplate. The first endplate includes a sloped anterior face and a sloped posterior face. The second endplate includes a posteriorly facing sloped surface for matingly engaging the sloped anterior face of the first endplate. The translation member includes an anteriorly facing sloped surface for matingly engaging the sloped posterior face of the first endplate.
