摘要:
An intersomatic cage, an intervertebral prosthesis, an anchoring device andan instrument for implantation of the cage or the prosthesis and the anchoringdevice are provided, as well as a system and a method for implanting spinal implantsand anchoring devices in vertebrae. An intersomatic cage or an intervertebralprosthesis fit closely to the anchoring device (1), which includes a body (10)of elongated shape on a longitudinal axis, of curved shape describing, alongthe longitudinal axis, an arc whose dimensions and radius of curvature are designedin such a manner that the anchoring device (1) may be implanted in the vertebralplate of a vertebra by presenting its longitudinal axis substantially alongthe plane of the intervertebral space, where the anchoring device (1) is inserted,by means of the instrument, through a slot located in at least one peripheral wallof the cage (2A, 2B) or on at least one plate of the intervertebral disc prosthesis(2C) to penetrate into at least one vertebral plate.
