A plating system (40, 240) for stabilizing at least one level of the spinal column includes a plate member (60, 260) having a first portion (70, 270) with a bottom surface (82, 282) extending between opposite sides of the plate member (60, 260). The bottom surface (82, 282) is positionable extradiscally along first and second vertebrae for engagement of the plate member (60, 260) thereto. A second portion (90, 290) of the plate member (60, 260) extends from one side of the first portion (70, 270) and away from the second side of the first portion (70, 270). The second portion (90, 290) is received in the disc space between the first and second vertebrae and intradiscally engageable to at least one of the first and second vertebra.

L'invention concerne un système de plaque (40, 240) permettant de stabiliser au moins un niveau de la colonne vertébrale. Ce système comprend un élément plaque (60, 260) ayant une première partie (70, 270) dotée d'une surface inférieure (82, 282) s'étendant entre des côtés opposés de l'élément plaque (60, 260). La surface inférieure (82, 282) est placée de manière extradiscale le long d'une première et d'une deuxième vertèbre pour y mettre en contact l'élément plaque (60, 260). Une deuxième partie (90, 290) de l'élément plaque (60, 260) s'étend d'un côté de la première partie (70, 270) et s'éloigne du deuxième côté de la première partie (70, 270). La deuxième partie (90, 290) est logée dans l'espace discal entre la première et la deuxième vertèbre et est en contact intradiscal avec au moins une vertèbre, la première ou la deuxième.
