Abstract:
An intervertebral implant for implantation in an intervertebral space between vertebrae. The implant includes a body extending from an upper surface to a lower surface. The body has a front end, a rear end and a pair of spaced apart first and second side walls extending between the front and rear walls such that an interior chamber is defined within the front and rear ends and the first and second walls. The body defines an outer perimeter and an inner perimeter extending about the internal chamber. At least one of the side walls is defined by a solid support structure and an integral porous structure, the porous structure extending from the outer perimeter to the inner perimeter. The porous structure embeds or encapsulates at least a portion of the solid support structure.

Claim (Index 20):
An intervertebral implant for implantation in an intervertebral space between vertebrae, wherein said implant comprises:\n a plate defining at least one bone screw hole, the plate having a pair of arms extending therefrom with each arm having an inward projection; a spacer body having a U-shaped configuration with a pair of legs, each of the legs having a slot configured to receive a respective inward projection to interconnect the spacer body with the plate, the spacer body defining a front end extending between the legs and defining an outer perimeter and an inner perimeter about an internal chamber defined within the U-shaped body, wherein at least one of the legs is defined by a solid support structure and an integral porous structure, the solid support structure including a solid rear wall at a free end of the leg extending between at least the upper outer rim and the lower outer rim, the porous structure extending from the outer perimeter to the inner perimeter and from the upper surface to the lower surface, wherein the porous structure comprises pores ranging from approximately 300-800 \u03bcm in diameter.
