Abstract

A spinal implant for implantation within a spinal facet joint is provided. The spinal implant may include a main body including opposing top and bottom surfaces, opposing front or distal and rear or proximal surfaces, and opposing side surfaces. At least one retaining feature may be associated with at least one surface of the main body to frictionally engage the implant within the spinal facet joint. At least one securement feature may be associated with at least one surface of the main body to selectively secure the implant within the spinal facet joint.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
