摘要:
A flexible spinal implant for insertion into an intervertebral disc space for sagittal and/or coronal intervertebral stabilization is provided comprising a flexible implant which enables bending of the flexible implant to facilitate insertion of the flexible spinal implant into the disc space via a spinal surgical procedure. The flexible spinal implant comprises a leading end, a trailing end flexibly connected to the leading end, a locking mechanism, wherein the implant is deformable at or about a flexible section to thereby permit a substantially straight entry of the implant into the disc space, and delivered to the selected disc space at a desired insertion angle of approach via a spinal surgical procedure. The implant can have a leading end comprising a curved or bullet shaped configuration, and the flexible section may be comprised of a flexible material or flexible sections which may be lockingly engaged.
