One embodiment of the present application is directed to a method and system for performing a unilateral surgical procedure to implant a prosthetic device (30, 31) between two spinous processes (24). During this procedure at least one side of one of the processes (24) remains covered by soft tissue. An instrument (50) is magnetically coupled to cabling (40) that is routed beneath this soft tissue and remains visually hidden during such routing. The cabling (40) is also configured to engage the prosthetic device (30, 31) positioned between the spinous processes (24).

Dans un mode de réalisation, la présente invention concerne un procédé et un système de mise en oeuvre d'une intervention chirurgicale unilatérale afin d'implanter un dispositif prothétique (30, 31) entre deux apophyses épineuses (24). Au cours de ladite intervention, au moins un côté d'une des apophyses épineuses (24) reste recouvert de tissu mou. Un instrument (50) est magnétiquement couplé au câblage (40) qui est passé sous ledit tissu mou et reste visuellement caché au cours dudit passage. Le câblage (40) est également conçu pour venir en prise avec le dispositif prothétique (30, 31) positionné entre les apophyses épineuses (24).
