An expandable implant may include an expandable body defined by a superior endplate and an inferior endplate that are hingedly coupled and may be expanded and lordosed by an external surgical tool. The superior endplate may include a first core having a distal engagement surface and the inferior endplate may a second core having a proximal engagement surface and a threaded screw aperture. The implant may include a threaded locking screw disposed in the threaded screw aperture and movable between a locked position and an unlocked position, for example. In the locked position, the threaded locking screw may urge the distal engagement surface of the first core into direct contact with the proximal engagement surface of the second core. The implant may include a pair of mounting tangs that may be sheared off and/or recesses. The locking screw may be a break-off screw.

An intervertebral fusion cage is disclosed. An intervertebral fusion cage according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a body including a receiving part of which upper and lower portions are open, an upper guide part, and a lower guide part; a moving member disposed in the receiving part; a screw which is screw-coupled to the body and moves forwards or backwards relative to the body integrally with the moving member when rotating; an upper plate which has a guided part guided by the upper guide part and is disposed above the body while being engaged with the moving member; and a lower plate which has a guided part guided by the lower guide part and is disposed under the body while being engaged with the moving member.

An expandable, adjustable inter-body fusion device is presented. The inter-body fusion device can have a first plate, a second plate, and an insert positioned substantially therebetween the first plate and the second plate. The first plate, the second plate, and the insert define an interior cavity. Moving the insert longitudinally with respect to the first and second plates increases or decreases the distance of the first plate with respect to the second plate, effectively expanding the inter-body fusion device and increasing the volume of the interior cavity. The angle between the first plate and the second plate is selectively adjustable.

An auxiliary tool for surgery includes an auxiliary tool main body part, and a first leg pair located on the auxiliary tool main body part. A tail end of the first leg pair is connected to the auxiliary tool main body part, a first mounting part is formed at a front end of the first leg pair, and the first mounting part is configured to clamp and press a surgical device to place the surgical device in a predetermined position.

Provided is a novel joint replacement prosthesis that includes a base component, and one or more modular stems. The base component includes a bone-facing surface including one or more stem connectors configured for receiving and forming connections with the one or more modular stems inserted from the bone-facing surface side.

The present disclosure provides for spinal implants configured for lateral insertion techniques deployable between a contracted position and an expanded position. The spinal implant may include a first endplate and a second endplate, each having a plurality of guide walls and inclined ramps. The spinal implant may further include a moving mechanism having first and second trolleys configured to act against the first and second plurality of ramps. The moving mechanism may further include a first set screw and a second set screw opposite the first set screw. The moving mechanism may be configured to operably adjust a spacing between the first and second endplates upon simultaneous rotation of the first and second set screws along a rotation axis, and may also operably adjust an angle of inclination between the first and second endplates upon rotating the first set screw or second set screw along the rotation axis.

An expandable interbody spacer that is delivered in the anterior approach with adjustable height and end plate angulation (lordosis). The expandable interbody spacer is configured to have an initial collapsed state having a first height suitable for being inserted into an intervertebral space defined by a pair of adjacent vertebrae, and an expanded state having a second height that is greater than the first height. The expandable interbody spacer may be expanded from the initial collapsed state to the expanded state in-situ. The expanded state increases the distance between the adjacent vertebrae and provides support to the adjacent vertebrae while bone fusion occurs and also provides rigid support between the adjacent vertebrae that withstands compressive forces. By inserting the expandable interbody spacer into the intervertebral space in the initial collapsed state, it is possible to perform the surgery percutaneously with minimal disruption to tissues surrounding the surgical site and intervening soft tissue structures.

In accordance with one aspect of disclosure, an inserter tool is provided for an elongate intervertebral implant. The inserter tool includes a body and a distal end portion of the body configured to be connected to the elongate intervertebral implant to orient the elongate intervertebral implant so that a longitudinal axis thereof extends in a predetermined direction. The inserter tool includes an offset member extending from the body. The offset member has an impact surface support portion spaced apart from the body and configured to position an impact surface in alignment with the implant longitudinal axis to permit the impact surface to receive an impact force directed in the predetermined direction.

Expandable fusion devices capable of being inserted between adjacent vertebrae to facilitate the fusion process. The expandable fusion device may include first and second endplates, a translation member configured to expand an anterior side and/or posterior side of the device, a plurality of joists configured to connect the first and second endplates to the translation member, and first and second actuation members disposed internally to the device such that openings on a back side of the device can be used to expand or compress the anterior side, the posterior side, or both and such openings may also be used to introduce graft material into the device.

An extraction tool for removing an installed artificial disc from a spine is provided. The extraction tool is impacted between the artificial disc and the vertebrae and engages the artificial disc to allow a surgeon to remove the artificial disc from the spine.
