An artificial spinal disc implant (100) is provided that may be im-planted between adjacent vertebrae in the spine to replace, repair or augment a natural spinal disc. The spinal disc implant may be characterized by one or more biomechani-cal properties that approximate those of natural spinal disc. The implant is also de-signed to be sufficiently secured to the ver-tebrae so that it may function in the body for long time periods. The endplate of the implant comprises a series of arrangements of fixation elements (111 A-F). The volume of the fixation elements which are closer to the posterior side of the implant is greater than the volume of the other fixation ele-ments.

La présente invention concerne un implant artificiel de disque spinal (100) qui peut être implanté entre des vertèbres adjacentes de la colonne vertébrale pour remplacer, réparer ou augmenter un disque spinal naturel. L'implant de disque spinal peut être caractérisé par une ou plusieurs propriétés biomécaniques qui se rapprochent de celles du disque spinal naturel. L'implant est également conçu pour être suffisamment fixé aux vertèbres de telle sorte qu'il puisse fonctionner dans le corps pendant de longues périodes de temps. La plaque d'extrémité de l'implant comprend une série de configurations d'éléments de fixation (111 A à F). Le volume des éléments de fixation qui se trouvent plus près du bord postérieur de l'implant, est plus grand que le volume des autres éléments de fixation.
