An intervertebral spacer may include a superior surface configured to engage a superior vertebral body, an inferior surface configured to engage an inferior vertebral body, and a peripheral wall extending from the superior surface to the inferior surface. A proximal end of the peripheral wall may include with a cam surface that is rotatable against a complementary cam surface of an inserter tool such that a first force causes the intervertebral spacer to pivot, relative to the inserter tool, about a pivot point associated with the cam surface.
