Abstract
An expandable implant for engagement between vertebrae includes an inner member, an outer member, and a gear member positioned coaxial with respect to each other such that the inner and outer members are moveable relative to each other along an axis. The inner member includes a longitudinal groove configured to engage a pin extending through the outer member such that the pin prevents the inner member from translating completely through the outer member and aids in alignment and limits rotation of the second endplate. Portions of the implant may be provided with a series of markings such that when the markings are aligned, the implant is aligned in a specific configuration and for a specific implantation approach.
