CA 2460766

A spinal implant having a smaller transverse cross-sectional dimension in the radially compressed configuration than in a first expanded configuration and a more linear configuration in the second delivery configuration than in the first curved configuration. The implant assumes the radially compressed configuration and second delivery configuration during delivery to the disc space and assumes the first curved configuration and first expanded configuration upon placement within the disc space. The implant further moves towards the radially compressed configuration once implanted in response to a load placed on the implant by the vertebral bodies.

Implant vertébral qui a, dans une configuration comprimée radialement, une dimension moins importante en coupe transversale que dans une première configuration dilatée; il a une forme plus linéaire dans une deuxième configuration de transport que dans une première configuration incurvée. L'implant se met dans une configuration comprimée radialement et dans une deuxième configuration de transport lors du transport jusqu'à l'espace du disque; il se place dans la première configuration incurvée et dans la première configuration dilatée lorsqu'il est introduit dans l'espace de disque. L'implant passe ensuite à la configuration comprimée lorsqu'il est implanté, sous l'effet du poids qu'exercent sur l'implant les corps des vertèbres.
