Claims19
An interbody spacer, comprising:
- at least one first endplate;
- at least one second endplate;
- and
- at least one connecting member coupled to and extending between the at least one first endplate and the at least one second endplate, wherein the connecting member comprises:
- at least one arcuate member extending between the at least one first endplate and the at least one second endplate, and wherein the at least one arcuate member couples to the at least one first endplate and the at least one second endplate between a first side and a second side, wherein the at least one arcuate member comprises:
- a first arcuate member coupled to and extending between a first side of the at least one first endplate and a first side of the at least one second endplate;
- and
- a second arcuate member coupled to and extending between a second side of the at least one first endplate and a second side of the at least one second endplate;
- and
- at least one reinforcement member connecting the first arcuate member and the second arcuate member.
