A bone fusion method, system and device for insertion between bones that are to be fused together in order to replace degenerated discs and/or bones, for example, the vertebrae of a spinal column. The bone fusion device comprises a frame and one or more extendable plates that are able to be angled, rotatable, adjustable, and have top profiles designed to correct and/or match the replaced discs/bones. The bone fusion device is able to be inserted between or replace the vertebrae by using a minimally invasive procedure wherein the dimensions and/or other characteristics of the bone fusion device are selectable based on the type of minimally invasive procedure.

Embodiments herein are generally directed to vertebral implants and implant trials for use with vertebral implant assemblies. In some embodiments, these implants and implant trials may be used in conjunction with corpectomy procedures.

A spinal implant device for placement between vertebral bodies includes a housing, at least one screw member in the housing, and at least one drive shaft operably engageable with the screw member. The housing includes a first shell member and a second shell member. At least the first shell member has step tracking comprising a plurality of individual riser members for receiving the at least one screw member. The height of the plurality of individual riser members may change along the step tracking. The drive shaft may be operable to rotate the at least one screw member, causing the at least one screw member to move on the plurality of individual riser members. The at least one screw member comprises an external helical thread having a thickness configured to fit in the gaps between adjacent individual riser members, and is engageable with the first and second shell members, whereby the first and second shell members move relative to each other in response to the rotation of the at least one screw member to effect an expansion of the housing or a contraction of the housing from the expansion by reversing the rotation of the at least one screw member.

An interbody fusion device includes a base member, a top member, and an expansion mechanism for moving the top member relative to the base member. The expansion mechanism may include a connector drive rod assembly, a gear, a threaded rod, and a support means. The gear ring is coupled to the threaded rod and is rotatable. The expansion mechanism may also include at least one load head coupled to the threaded rod. An alternative interbody fusion device is also disclosed and includes a bottom member, a superior member, and an expansion mechanism for moving the superior member relative to the base member, wherein the expansion mechanism comprises at least one expansion assembly for moving an end of the superior member relative to the bottom member.

The present disclosure relates to an anti-rotation locking system for an expandable implant. The anti-rotation locking system may include a screw comprising a screw head comprising a plurality of notches. The anti-rotation locking system further comprises a housing and a locking member comprising a ring, a partial ring, and a strut coupling the ring to the partial ring.

An expandable implant (100, 150, 160, 200, 250, 300, 400) has a base (10) and a displaceable element (12) hingedly interconnected at one end. At the other end, the base and the displaceable element are formed with complementary jaws (24, 26) which provide continuous overlap of facing surfaces over a range of angular positions of the displaceable element relative to said base. In some cases, the first end portion (16) of the displaceable element (12) is formed with projecting teeth (28) forming a partial gear centered on an axis (18) of the hinged interconnection with the base (12) for engaging a worm gear. In certain embodiments, the base is formed with a socket (30) for removably receiving a worm gear tool (32) for engaging the teeth (28) and displacing said displaceable element. After expansion, the worm-gear tool (32) can be removed.

A cage device includes first and second segments pivotally connected by a hinge. Pivoted movement of the segments with respect to each other is limited by a first stopper portion of the first segment abutting against a second stopper portion of the second segment.

An expandable prosthetic implant for engagement between vertebrae includes a first member having a first end, a second end, a plurality of extensions and and a hollow interior portion extending from the first end to the second end, wherein the plurality of extensions extend from the first end to the second end. A second member includes a first end, a second end, a hollow interior portion extending from the first end to the second end, and a plurality of extensions extending from the second end to the first end. The plurality extensions of the first member are configured to coaxially interdigitate with the second member, and the plurality of extensions of the second member are configured to coaxially interdigitate with the first member. The first member of the implant is moveable relative to the second member along a longitudinal axis.

The present invention provides an expandable fusion device capable of being installed inside an intervertebral disc space to maintain normal disc spacing and restore spinal stability, thereby facilitating an intervertebral fusion. In one embodiment, the fusion device includes a body portion, a first endplate, and a second endplate, the first and second endplates capable of being moved in a direction away from the body portion into an expanded configuration or capable of being moved towards the body portion into an unexpanded configuration. The fusion device is capable of being deployed and installed in both configurations.
