Content
A threaded hole 1130 may optionally be provided in the contoured surface 1120. The threaded hole 1130 may be used to secure the implant 1060 to an insertion instrument, a positioning instrument, and/or a removal instrument. The threaded hole 1130 may be formed in a recess 1140 in the contoured surface 1120 so that the threaded hole 1130 can have the desired orientation, without affecting the shape of the contoured surface 1120 more than necessary. Of course, many other features may be used to secure an instrument to the implant 1060, including various clips, clamps, fasteners, and interfacing features, as known in the art.
