A spinal implant (100) may be used to stabilize a portion of a spine. The implant may promote bone growth between adjacent vertebrae that fuses the vertebrae together. An implant may include an opening (112) through a height of a body of the implant. The body of the implant may include curved sides. A top and/or a bottom of the implant may include protrusions (130) that contact and/or engage vertebral surfaces to prevent backout of the implant from the disc space. A variety of instruments may be used to prepare a disc space and insert an implant. The instruments may include, but are not limited to, a distractor, a rasp, and one or more guides. The implant and instruments may be supplied in an instrument kit.

L'invention concerne un implant vertébral servant à stabiliser une partie de la colonne vertébrale et pouvant promouvoir la croissance osseuse entre des vertèbres adjacentes qui fusionnent alors entre elles. Cet implant peut comporter une ouverture sur la hauteur du corps de l'implant, lequel peut avoir des côtés incurvés. Une partie supérieure et/ou inférieure de l'implant peut comprendre des saillies qui sont en contact et/ou en prise avec des surfaces vertébrales pour prévenir le renversement de l'implant hors de l'espace discal. Une pluralité d'instruments peut servir à préparer un espace discal et à insérer un implant, ces instruments comprenant, mais sans se limiter à un dispositif de distraction, une râpe et un ou plusieurs guides, cet implant et ces instruments pouvant être fournis dans un kit.
