An expandable vertebral device includes a base assembly having end portions that are movable relative to one another via adjustment of an adjustment mechanism at the first end portion. A plurality of movable plates are movably disposed at the base assembly and are at least vertically movable relative to the base assembly as the end portions are moved relative to one another. Each of the end portions has a pair of vertical guide elements and may have a pair of lateral guide elements. Each of the movable plates includes a vertical guide that moves along the respective vertical guide element and may have a lateral guide that moves along a respective lateral guide element. When the adjustment mechanism is adjusted to draw the end portions toward one another, the movable plates move outward from a longitudinal axis of the base assembly as the guides move along the respective guide elements.
