摘要：
An angulating spinal plate assembly for fixation and/or support of bones of the spinal column is provided. The angulating bone plate includes interleaved, arcuate sheets that facilitate relative motion between first/second elements. An implant assembly is also provided that includes an angulating bone plate and associated first/second intervertebral plates that extend therefrom. The angulating bone plate generally includes an interleaved elements, e.g., an upstanding tab that cooperates with opposing faces of an opening, that permit rotational movement as between first/second implant elements until a desired relative orientation is achieved. At such time, a fixation/locking element is generally employed to fix the first/second implant elements relative to each other. The rotational movement permitted is generally in multiple planes based on the cooperative arcuate surfaces provided in the disclosed elements, i.e., side-to-side and top-to-bottom freedoms of movement.
