Abstract

See full text

An inserter instrument and an implant device are provided. An interconnection between an implant and an instrument may include a threaded connection and a gripping connection. Motion of the gripping connection is coordinated with motion of the threaded connection. One implant includes a threaded hole and an adjacent angled pocket, both of which extend into the implant through an instrument-facing surface. One instrument includes a threaded rod and an adjacent pivoting finger, both of which protrude from an end face of the instrument. When the implant is connected to this instrument, the instrument-facing surface abuts the end face, the threaded rod engages the threaded hole, and the finger extends into the pocket along an angle of the pocket.
