A spinal implant for lateral insertion into an intervertebral disc space between a superior and inferior vertebral bodies (202; 204), the spinal implant comprising: a spacer body comprising a proximal base portion, a distal end, a first side wall and an opposing second side wall; and a plate having a first side, a second side, a front surface, a rear surface and a pair of opposing coupling flanges that extend from the rear surface, the plate having two upper boreholes and two lower boreholes that are respectively positioned about a lateral center plane of the plate, wherein the plate is secure to the spacer body by a mechanical coupling of the opposing coupling flanges, wherein the two upper boreholes and the two lower boreholes are adapted to each receive a bone screw to secure the spinal implant within the intervertebral disc space, wherein the spinal implant is configured such that when laterally inserted into the intervertebral disc space the first side of the plate is located at an anterior position with respect to the intervertebral disc space and the second side of the plate is located at a posterior position with respect to the intervertebral disc space, wherein one of each of the upper and lower boreholes is located proximate the first side of the plate and one of each of the upper and lower boreholes is located proximate the second side of the plate, wherein the upper boreholes are configured such that bone screws inserted therein are angled upwards relative to the lateral centre plane of the plate, wherein the lower boreholes are configured such that bone screws inserted therein are angled downwards relative to the lateral centre plane of the plate, characterized in that the boreholes have an asymmetric configuration relative to a vertical center plane of the plate in which the two boreholes proximate the first side are configured such that bone screws inserted therein are angled in a direction towards a posterior side of the intervertebral disc space, and wherein the two boreholes proximate the second side are configured such that bone screws inserted therein are angled in a straight direction relative to the anterior and posterior sides of the intervertebral disc space. a spacer body comprising a proximal base portion, a distal end, a first side wall and an opposing second side wall; and a plate having a first side, a second side, a front surface, a rear surface and a pair of opposing coupling flanges that extend from the rear surface, the plate having two upper boreholes and two lower boreholes that are respectively positioned about a lateral center plane of the plate, wherein the plate is secure to the spacer body by a mechanical coupling of the opposing coupling flanges, wherein the two upper boreholes and the two lower boreholes are adapted to each receive a bone screw to secure the spinal implant within the intervertebral disc space, wherein the spinal implant is configured such that when laterally inserted into the intervertebral disc space the first side of the plate is located at an anterior position with respect to the intervertebral disc space and the second side of the plate is located at a posterior position with respect to the intervertebral disc space, wherein one of each of the upper and lower boreholes is located proximate the first side of the plate and one of each of the upper and lower boreholes is located proximate the second side of the plate, wherein the upper boreholes are configured such that bone screws inserted therein are angled upwards relative to the lateral centre plane of the plate, wherein the lower boreholes are configured such that bone screws inserted therein are angled downwards relative to the lateral centre plane of the plate, characterized in that the boreholes have an asymmetric configuration relative to a vertical center plane of the plate in which the two boreholes proximate the first side are configured such that bone screws inserted therein are angled in a direction towards a posterior side of the intervertebral disc space, and wherein the two boreholes proximate the second side are configured such that bone screws inserted therein are angled in a straight direction relative to the anterior and posterior sides of the intervertebral disc space.
