Abstract
A disc implant device can be provided in a generally planar rectangular sheet having a first elongated side, a second elongated side opposing the first elongated side, a first end, and a second end opposing the first end. The generally planar rectangular sheet is structured with alternating segments of joint ridges, each segment of joint ridges being configured to form a spacing joint segment and alternating segments of arm ridges, each arm segment being configured to form a plurality of radially extending arms, the joint segments providing flexibility to the device. When the disc implant is folded or rolled from its planar configuration to a generally cylindrical configuration, the arm segments are axially collapsible and radially expandable such that in such a configuration, the implant includes segments of radially expanded arms separated by spacing joint segments.
