Delete 		FLO-4 An implant assembly includes a screw with a head having a head feature and an implant. The implant is securable to a bone of a patient with the screw. The implant includes a bone plate, a rotatable structure having a top surface and a bottom surface. The bottom surface includes a lock feature. The lock feature engages the head feature when the rotatable structure is in a locked orientation and disengages the head feature when the rotatable structure is in an unlocked orientation. The rotatable structure couples to the bone plate such that the rotatable structure is rotatable between the locked orientation and the unlocked orientation. The head feature can be one of a ridge and a radial groove and the lock feature can be the other one of the ridge and the radial groove. 135 Added by DJM 5 2021 5/1/21, 12:00 AM

Delete 		FLO-4 Figure 8 is a top view of an implant assembly 800, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. The implant assembly 800 may serve as a vertebral assembly. In the illustrated embodiment, the implant assembly 800 supports three levels 704 (e.g., level 704a, level 704b, and level 704c). The present disclosure supports move levels 704 as well. In one embodiment, the implant assembly 100 can support 5 levels and may include four rotatable structures 112, four pairs of screw openings 106, and four corresponding pair of screws 104. 89 Added by DJM 5 2021 5/1/21, 12:00 AM
