Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to coiled implants and systems and methods of use thereof. The invention provides an implant comprising: an first plate forming a first monolithic structure defining a first end of the implant; a second plate forming a second monolithic structure defining a second end of the implant opposite the first end of the implant; a central support portion extending between the first plate and the second plate; a side wall extending between the first plate and the second plate and defining a portion of the outside perimeter of the implant; a first exterior arced member disposed proximate the side wall and the second plate; and a first interior arced member disposed proximate the central support member and the second plate; wherein the first exterior arced member curves in a first direction such that a portion of the first exterior arced member forms a portion of a bone contacting surface of the implant; and wherein the first interior arced member curves in the first direction such that a portion of the first interior arced member forms a portion of the bone contacting surface of the implant. |
