1. An implant system for lateral insertion between a first vertebra and a second vertebra in a space remaining after the removal of at least part of one vertebra, comprising:
an intermediate expansion member having an axis and an axial length extending between a first end and a second end, wherein the intermediate expansion member includes a ring member rotatable about the axis of the intermediate expansion member to adjust the axial length between the first end and the second end, wherein the intermediate expansion member includes said rotatable ring member, an outer core member, an inner core member having a threaded engagement with the rotatable ring member and being configured to linearly translate in an axial direction relative to the outer core member in response to rotation of said rotatable ring member relative to said outer core member, the rotatable ring member, the outer core member, and the inner core member all comprising a same material, and wherein said outer core member includes: an elongate opening along a sidewall and bisected by a central longitudinal plane passing through and parallel to the axis of the intermediate expansion member, and a pair of indented slots for receiving a lateral insertion tool and being symmetrically offset on opposing sides of the central longitudinal plane of the intermediate expansion member, the elongate opening having an aperture height extending generally parallel to the axis of the intermediate expansion member and an aperture width extending generally perpendicularly to the aperture height, the aperture height being greater than the aperture width; multiple pairs of endplates for attachment to the intermediate expansion member, at least one pair of the endplates being differently sized from another pair of the endplates, the multiple pairs of endplates including first and second plates being configured to engage the first and second vertebrae through a lateral approach to the spine after the removal of said at least part of one vertebra; the first endplate including anti-migration features configured to engage the first vertebra and a first attachment structure configured to slidably engage the first end of the intermediate expansion member in the axial direction to thereby move to a locked position along the first end of the intermediate expansion member, the first endplate having: a plate width of 18 mm to 22 mm extending between an anterior side and a posterior side that extend generally parallel to one another, a plate length of 30 mm to 60 mm extending generally perpendicular to the plate width between opposing lateral sides, wherein the first endplate is defined by a perimeter that includes anterior and posterior aspects that extend longitudinally straight and generally parallel to the plate length of the first plate and opposing lateral aspects including convexly curved portions; and the second endplate including anti-migration features configured to engage the second vertebra and a second attachment structure configured to slidably engage the second end of the intermediate expansion member in the axial direction to thereby move to a locked position along the second end of the intermediate expansion member, the second endplate having: a plate width of 18 mm to 22 mm extending between an anterior side and a posterior side that extend generally parallel to one another, a plate length of 30 mm to 60 mm extending generally perpendicular to the plate width between opposing lateral sides, wherein the second endplate is defined by a perimeter that includes anterior and posterior aspects that extend longitudinally straight and generally parallel to the plate length of the second plate and opposing lateral aspects including convexly curved portions. |
