Intervertebral prosthesis, apparatus for implanting intervertebral prostheses and surgical method for implanting intervertebral prostheses, particularly for percutaneous minimally-invasive surgical procedures
An intervertebral prosthesis, particularly for percutaneous minimally-invasive surgery having a substantially disc-like geometry with a thickness equal to the intervertebral distance to be restored is provided. In a lateral elevation view, in the intervertebral prosthesis there is a through-hole adapted to allow its sliding along a guiding wire inserted previously in the patient through a percutaneous minimally-invasive anterolateral access.
