ARTICULATING INTERBODY CAGE AND METHODS THEREOF

摘要

Provided are devices, systems and methods related to articulating interbody cages. The device includes a caudal plate configured to be positioned adjacent a first vertebral endplate within an intervertebral disc space, a cephalad plate configured to be positioned adjacent a second vertebral endplate within the intervertebral disc space; and a first and second sidewall each rotatably coupled to both the caudal and cephalad plates. At least one of the first and second sidewalls includes a hinge element restricted from achieving an on-center or over-center rotational position around the hinge element upon dimensional expansion of the device in at least a first dimension.
