Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a spinal implant system and method. One embodiment of the present invention includes a spinal implant (100) comprising, a first implant plate (110), a second implant plate (112), z spacer member (115) coupled between the first implant plate and the second implant plate and an end plate (120) coupled to the spacer member, the end plate configured to couple to adjacent vertebrae. The implant plates can include spacer channels (160) that receive the spacer member and insertionn tool channels (155) that receive an insertion tool. Preferably, on each implant plate, the spacer channel is near the center of the plate and the insertion tool channels are on either side of the spacer chanle. The spacer channels and insertion tool channels can be dovetailed or otherwise shaped to capture a portion of the spacer member and insertion tool. Mating connectors can prevent removal of the spacer member from the spacer channels.
