The invention also relates to a method for building a cage for spondylodesis with such a kit, in which several plates (1, 2) are pressed against each other, wherein the plates (1, 2) snap into each other, thus forming the cage. Further, the invention relates to a cage for spondylodesis constructed of at least two plates (1, 2).1/22 81 3 7 8 * >; r ~ >; I *0c C a 0 OC sC a 0<;i5S uss o w memoe o O loCP CI0 0oa <;: o CP 0 a1 <;>; 0 00 0 C>; % CO 02 4 5o 6 3o 30 3P 00 C Fiur 14>;40%0 00 c ka 4
