Abstract
An intervertebral spacer implant can include: a plurality of links, each link having a hole bored along an axis of said link and said hole of each link of said plurality of links aligns to form a channel bored through said plurality of links, wherein a first link of said plurality of links is pivotally engaged to a second link of said plurality of links. The implant can include an elongated member, such as a guide wire, adapted to retain said plurality of links, wherein said elongated member is configured to mate with each said hole of each link of said plurality of links. At least one link of the plurality of links includes a body having one or more textured sides. The elongated member is adapted to allow said plurality of links to rotatably articulate with respect to one another, such as by a hinge.
