Systems, methods and devices for providing stabilization between first and second vertebrae are provided. More particularly, in one form an implant assembly includes first and second end members configured to engage with the first and second vertebrae, respectively, and a support body configured to extend between and engage with the end members. In one aspect of this form, one or both of the end members is configured to facilitate injection of a material into one or both of the vertebrae. In another aspect, one or both of the end members includes a mesh material extending across a hollow interior to facilitate bone growth through the end member toward the support body. In another form, techniques for providing stabilization and support to vertebrae on opposite sides of a space created by removal of one or more vertebral elements are provided. However, different forms and applications are also envisioned. |
