Systems for spinal stabilization and fixation replace or augment spinal ligamentous and/or bony tissues. The systems comprise an implant (30), at least a portion of one end (31a), which can be positioned in a tunnel (H1) formed in a first vertebral body (V1), and at least one anchor (32a) for attaching said one end to said first vertebral body. The second end (31b) of the implant may be positionable in a second tunnel (H2) formed in a second vertebral body (V2), in which case the system also comprises a second anchor (32b) engaged to said second end in said second tunnel. The systems have a low profile conformable to spinal anatomy.
