    摘要: An interbody spinal fusion implant for insertion across the height of a disc space between two adjacent vertebral bodies of a human spine comprises an insertion end for insertion first into the spine and a trailing end opposite said insertion end, a longitudinal axis, and a depth along the longitudinal axis. The implant further comprises an upper surface and a lower surface between said insertion and trailing ends, said surfaces being flat and forming a support structure for bearing against the adjacent vertebral bodies. The implant has a height between said surfaces, each surface has at least one opening therethrough, wherein the openings are in communication with one another to permit for the growth of bone from adjacent vertebral body to adjacent vertebral body through said implant. The implant also comprises opposite walls between said upper and lower surfaces and between said insertion and trailing ends, and a width between said opposite sides. The upper and lower surfaces each have an interior surface spaced apart from one another to define a hollow interior in communication with said openings. The maximum width of the implant between said opposite walls is larger than a maximum height between said upper and lower surfaces of said implant. The upper and lower surfaces are in angular relationship to the longitudinal axis along the depth of the implant, and the implant includes an access opening between said upper and lower surfaces and an access door. The access door is configured to permit the introduction of bone growth promoting material into the hollow interior, wherein the access opening is larger of the largest of said openings. The access door is configured to cooperatively engage said implant for retaining the bone growth promoting material within said implant.
