  • Spinal implant
    Patent number: 11737887
    Abstract: Presently disclosed is a spinal implant. In an embodiment, a spinal implant includes a porous body configured to promote bone growth. The porous body may have an attachment portion that is configured to secure the spinal implant to a fixation system attached to one or more vertebra. The porous body may also include a fusion plate extending from the attachment portion and configured to contact transverse processes, lamina, or facet of adjacent vertebrae. Accordingly, when the attachment portion is secured to the fixation system, the fusion plate may be maintained in compression against the transverse processes, lamina, or facet.
