Abstract:
Arcuate fixation members with varying configurations and/or features are provided, along with additional components for use therewith in provided intervertebral implants. The arcuate fixation members may be of different lengths, cross sectional geometries, and/or cross sectional areas. Applications of intervertebral implants utilizing arcuate fixation members are particularly suitable when a linear line-of-approach for delivering fixation members is undesirable.

Claim (Index 1):
A bone fixation member configured to be inserted in a vertebral body, the bone fixation member comprising:\n a fixation body having opposing proximal and distal ends, the body including a curved intermediate portion extending between the proximal and distal ends, the distal end defining a tip configured to cut into bone; wherein the fixation body comprises a guidance member disposed near the tip and extending toward the proximal end, the guidance member configured to guide the tip along an insertion trajectory as the fixation member is inserted into the vertebral body.
