Abstract: A spinal implant insertion tool includes a handle portion formed by the proximal ends of a first prong and second prong and an attachment portion formed by the distal ends of the first prong and the second prong. The spinal implant insertion tool also includes a hinged portion positioned between the handle portion and the attachment portion where the first and second prongs are coupled by a hinge. A first attachment section includes first connectors for holding a spinal plate. A second attachment portion includes second connectors for holding a spinal cage. The first prong includes an oblique portion so that it is nonlinear, while the second prong is linear, so that the hinge is offset from the spinal cage and spinal plate held by the spinal implant insertion tool.

Abstract: A spinal implant insertion tool includes a handle portion and an attachment portion extending distally from the handle portion. A first attachment section on the attachment portion is adapted to secure a surgically sterile spinal plate to the spinal implant insertion tool. A second attachment section on the attachment portion is adapted to secure a surgically sterile spinal cage, so that the spinal plate and the spinal cage may be attached to the spinal implant insertion tool simultaneously. The second attachment section is sized to allow the spinal plate to pass over the second attachment section before the spinal plate is secured to the first attachment section.

Abstract: An intervertebral implant for implantation between an upper vertebral body and a lower vertebral body is disclosed. The intervertebral implant includes a body portion through which a first and a second pathway pass. A first straight anchor is movable in a straight path through the first pathway and a second straight anchor is movable in a straight path through the second pathway. A locking member is movable between an open position and a closed position to either block or allow the withdrawal of the first and second straight anchors.

Abstract: An intervertebral implant for implantation between an upper vertebral body and a lower vertebral body is disclosed. It includes a body portion and a plate that is removably attachable to the body portion. A first and second pathway pass through the plate. A first arcuate anchor is movable in an arcuate path through the first pathway and a second arcuate anchor is movable in an arcuate path through the second pathway. A locking member is movable between an open position and a closed position to either block or allow the withdrawal of the first and second arcuate anchors.
