Abstract: An implant assembly is disclosed, and includes an implant member and a plate configured to be coupled with the implant member. The plate defines a horizontal plane and includes at least one bore through the plate. The bore has an inlet aperture and at least one exit aperture. The inlet aperture has a curvilinear seat. A fastener is configured for insertion through the at least one bore, and the fastener has a curved portion. The curved portion of the fastener is configured to contact the contact the curvilinear seat to secure the plate to the implant member.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards a biomechanical implant and anterior, lateral or posterior instrumentation construct. The construct may be of unitary or modular construction, whereby a single molded construction can form the entire assembly, in which case the through holes may be adapted to receive a metallic insert for screw fixation; or alternatively be of a modular construction wherein the anterior/lateral instrumentation and intervertebral spacer are designed for removable locking engagement, one with the other, for insertion by the surgeon as a unitary construct.
