Paragraph Number

50

As used herein, an “expanded configuration” refers to an arrangement of an upper endplate 110, lower endplate 112, proximal wedge 114, distal wedge 116, and screw member 118 such that the assembly has its greatest height. In certain embodiments, the expandable intervertebral implant 100 is configured such that the upper endplate 110 engages the lower endplate 112 such that the upper endplate 110 is as far away as possible from the lower endplate 112 in the expanded configuration. As described in more detail below, the expandable intervertebral implant 100 is configured to have any configuration between a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration.
