Abstract:
A spinal implant formed from a hinged distractor having an upper and lower support body that is hinged by use of pinions. An insert body is constructed and arranged to slide between the section to expand the height and to maintain a space therebetween. The insert body may include a leading edge that is tapered to allow ease of insertion. A trailing edge of the insert body includes a pin to allow ease of insertion along a curvature path.

Claim (Index 1):
A spinal implant comprising:\n an upper support body having a proximal end and a distal end spaced apart by a first downwardly depending sidewall separated by a second downwardly depending sidewall, said upper support body having an upper surface and an inner surface, said first downwardly depending sidewall having a first slotted aperture extending therefrom and said second downwardly depending sidewall having a second slotted aperture extending therefrom; a lower support body having a proximal end and a distal end spaced apart by a first upwardly depending sidewall separated by a second upwardly depending sidewall, said lower support body having a lower surface and an inner surface, said first upwardly depending sidewall having a first outwardly positioned pinion constructed and arranged for movement within said first slotted aperture and said second upwardly depending sidewall having a second outwardly positioned pinion constructed and arranged for movement within said second slotted aperture an insert body having a top surface, a bottom surface, opposing lateral sides, opposing anterior and posterior end walls and a substantially hollow center; wherein said insert body is placed between said upper support body and said lower support body, whereby said upper body and said lower body expands in height to accommodate a height of said insert body.
