A surgical system comprising:
- an interbody implant comprising a substrate, a first endplate and a second endplate, the substrate comprising opposite top and bottom surfaces, the first endplate including a first surface configured to engage the top surface and an opposite second surface, the second endplate including a first surface configured to engage the bottom surface and an opposite second surface, the second surfaces each including teeth;
- and
- a surgical tool including a first jaw and a second jaw, the first jaw comprising a first slot configured for disposal of a perimeter of the first endplate, the second jaw comprising a second slot configured for disposal of a perimeter of the second endplate, the first slot comprising grooves matching a configuration of the teeth of the second surface of the first endplate, the second slot comprising grooves matching a configuration of the teeth of the second surface of the second endplate.
A surgical system comprising:
- an interbody implant comprising a substrate, a first endplate and a second endplate, the substrate comprising opposite top and bottom surfaces, the first endplate including a first surface configured to engage the top surface and an opposite second surface, the second endplate including a first surface configured to engage the bottom surface and an opposite second surface, the second surfaces each including teeth;
- and
- a surgical tool including a first jaw, a second jaw, a first part coupled to the first jaw and a second part coupled to the second jaw, the first part comprising a first slot configured for disposal of a perimeter of the first endplate, the second part comprising a second slot configured for disposal of a perimeter of the second endplate, the first slot comprising grooves matching a configuration of the teeth of the second surface of the first endplate, the second slot comprising grooves matching a configuration of the teeth of the second surface of the second endplate.
A surgical system comprising:
- an interbody implant comprising a substrate, a first endplate and a second endplate, the substrate comprising opposite top and bottom surfaces, the first endplate including a first surface configured to engage the top surface and an opposite second surface, the second endplate including a first surface configured to engage the bottom surface and an opposite second surface, the second surfaces each including teeth;
- and
- a surgical tool including a first jaw, a second jaw, a first part coupled to the first jaw and a second part coupled to the second jaw, the first part comprising a first slot configured for disposal of an entire perimeter of the first endplate, the second part comprising a second slot configured for disposal of an entire perimeter of the second endplate, the first slot comprising grooves matching a configuration of the teeth of the second surface of the first endplate, the second slot comprising grooves matching a configuration of the teeth of the second surface of the second endplate,
- wherein the top surface includes a plurality of first apertures and the first surface of the first endplate comprises a plurality of first pins each configured for disposal in one of the plurality of first apertures, and
- wherein the bottom surface includes a plurality of second apertures and the first surface of the second endplate comprises a plurality of second pins each configured for disposal in one of the plurality of second apertures.
