Abstract

A plate (10) includes a raised platform (20) which rests in a channel in a vertebrae to prevent sideways movement of the plate. A rib (22) extends into a groove formed in the base of the channel to help prevent relative forwards and backwards movement of the plate (10) through the channel. A plate (12) is similarly secured to the facing surface of an adjacent vertebrae. A spacer (12) is inserted between the parts (10) and (14). The spacer (12) includes a downwardly facing convex surface (28) and a flat upwardly facing surface (30). The convex surface (28) slides in a concave recess (32) provided on top of the plate (14) and the flat surface (30) slides against a downwardly facing flat surface (34) of the upper plate (10).
