摘要

An intervertebral prosthesis for insertion by posterior approach, designed to be inserted in pairs between two vertebral bodies, said prosthesis consisting of a prosthesis body extending in a longitudinal direction of intervertebral insertion, including peripheral faces delimiting, on the inside, an inner space for receiving a bone substitute.
