Interbody spinal implants, as now taught, further includeroughened surface topography on at least a portion of its top surface and/orbottom surface. Preferred embodiments of the interbody spinal implant aresubstantially hollow and have a generally oval-shaped transverse cross-sectional area. Preferred embodiments of further include at least one aperturethat extends the entire height of the implant body.
