Abstract

An interbody spinal fusion implant (100) adapted for placement at least in part across an intervertebral space formed across a disc space between two adjacent vertebral bodies and for penetrating engagement into each of those vertebral bodies, the implant having a trailing end (104) adapted to sit upon and not protrude from the anterolateral peripheral rim of bone of the vertebral body.
