Content
For example, in one embodiment, the expandable intervertebral implant may have a wedge shaped profile with a narrower part of the wedge on a proximal end of the expandable intervertebral implant and a wider part of the wedge on a distal end of the expandable intervertebral implant. An expandable intervertebral implant with such a wedge-shaped profile can facilitate insertion of the expandable intervertebral implant during a MIS surgical procedure. In addition to the wedge-shaped profile, certain embodiments of the expandable intervertebral implant may include a camber on a top surface and bottom surface of the expandable intervertebral implant to further facilitate placement and positioning of the expandable intervertebral implant between vertebral bodies during the MIS procedure. Of course, one skilled in the art may recognize other situations and advantages of a wedge-shaped profile for an expandable intervertebral implant; this disclosure contemplates all such situations and advantages.
