Abstract
A spinal implant for engagement between a pair of vertebrae has a pair of parts displaceable relative to each other along an axis and each adapted to engage a respective one of the vertebrae. One of the parts is formed with a screwthread engaging a nut that bears axially on the other of the parts and that is formed with an externally accessible array of gear teeth. This implant is set by a setting tool having a holder fittable with the other part, a rotary member in the holder, and a gear on the rotary member meshable with the teeth of the one part when the holder is fitted to the other part.
