Abstract
Expandable fusion devices, systems, instruments, and methods thereof. The expandable fusion implant may include an upper endplate and a lower endplate configured to engage adjacent vertebrae, an actuation gear configured to adjust a height of the upper endplate, an interface collar configured to attach to an inserter instrument at multiple orientations for a desired surgical approach, and an expansion and orientation lock configured to lock the orientation of the interface collar and lock the height of the upper endplate. The expandable fusion device is attachable to the inserter instrument to secure the interface collar and disengage the lock from the actuation gear to permit expansion of the upper endplate.
