Abstract
An interbody spacer for spinal fusion surgery includes a body configured for insertion within an interbody space between two adjacent vertebrae. The body defines at least one fastener-receiving opening for receiving a fastener for securing the body within the interbody space. A blocking member is disposable in the fastener-receiving opening for preventing the fastener from being withdrawn from the fastener-receiving opening once the fastener has been fully inserted into the fastener-receiving opening.
