`
`1.
`
`AnA spinal fusion implant for insertion between a first vertebra and a
`
`second vertebra adjacent the first vertebra, the first vertebra having a
`
`generally vertically extending first peripheral wall and a first eertieaibene
`
`endplate and the second vertebra having a generally vertically extending
`
`second peripheral wall and a second endplate, wherein the
`
`implant comprises:
`
`a first terminal part defining a trailing face, a first bearing surface
`
`adapted to bear against a portion of the eeaaieal-ben4.tfir:stendplate—preaeinaate
`
` , and an opposite second bearing surface adapted
`
`to bear against a portion of the second ndplate L
`
`said trailing face extending between said first bearing surface and second
`
`bearing surface, said trailing face having a recessed portion and a threaded
`
`opening configured to receive an insertion instrument for inserting said
`
`implant between the first vertebra and the second venebra'
`
`
`
` a second terminal part
`
`opposite said first terminal part, said second terminal part
`
` having an insertion face extending fi=on+said—
`

`having a longitudinal axis extending through said trailing face of said first
`
`terminal part and said insertion face of said second terminal part, and having
`
`a cross section in a first plane extending through said uppermzt bearing
`
`surface and said lewersecond bearing surface, and along the longitudinal
`
`axis, said
`
` implant having a pertienlength between said trailing face of
`
`said first terminal part
`

`
`and parallel to the longitudinal axis, said implant having a width and a
`
`height each pemendicular to the length of said implant, the width of said
`
`implant being greater than the height of said implant;
`
`a first side and an opposite second side, said first side and said second
`
`side extending alengfrom said first terminal pafi Q
`
`said second terminal part, portions of said first side and said second side
`
`being substantially flat, said substantially flat portions intersecting a second
`
`plane that is perpendicular to the first plane and extends through said
`
`insertion face and said trailing face, wherein said substantially flat
`

`
`said implant from the first vertebra to the second vertebra;
