Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2005087143A1] The invention relates to an implant used in stabilising operations on the thoracic and lumbar vertebral column for restoring the load-bearing capacity of the vertebral column. According to the invention, the insertion region of said implant (I) comprises a wedge-shaped distraction part (C), which permits the vertebral bodies to be pushed apart in order to increase the intervertebral distance. In addition, guide elements in the form of grooves (7) and/or strips are provided on said wedge-shaped distraction part (C) and/or in the implant part (D).
