  • Patent number: 8430930
    Abstract: In various embodiments, an implant for interfacing with a bone structure includes a web structure including a space truss. The space truss includes two or more planar truss units having a plurality of struts joined at nodes and the web structure is configured to interface with human bone tissue. In some embodiments, a method is provided that includes accessing an intersomatic space and inserting an implant into the intersomatic space. The implant includes a web structure including a space truss. The space truss includes two or more planar truss units having a plurality of struts joined at nodes and the web structure is configured to interface with human bone tissue.

  • Publication number: 20110313532
    Abstract: An orthopedic implant that includes an implant body having a bone contact surface to be in contact or near contact with a bone structure during use, wherein the bone contact surface has a bone interface structure protruding therefrom. The bone interface structure includes a first elongated portion to be at least partially pressed into the bone structure during use, and a second elongated portion to be at least partially pressed into the bone structure during use. The second elongated portion is coupled to the first elongated portion and extends from the first elongated portion at an angle oblique to the first elongated portion.
