An intervertebral implant having a three-dimensional body (10) and a
securing plate (1). The three-dimensional body (10) includes an upper
side (1) and an underside (2) which are suitable for abutting the end
plates of two adjacent vertebral bodies, a left side surface (3) and a
right side surface (4), a front surface (5) and a rear surface (6), a
horizontal middle plane (7) between the upper side (1) and the underside
(2), and a vertical middle plane (12) extending from the front surface
(5) to the rear surface (6). The three-dimensional body further includes
a plurality of boreholes (9a) passing through the body (10), which are
suitable for accommodating longitudinal fixation elements (20). The
intervertebral implant also includes a front plate (8) displaceably
disposed as an insert with the front side (5) of the three-dimensional
body, the front plate (8) having a plurality of boreholes (9) in which
the longitudinal fixation elements (20) can be anchored, and whose
openings overlap with the openings of the boreholes of the
three-dimensional body (10). A securing plate can be fastened essentially
parallel to the front plate (8) at the three-dimensional body (10) in
such a manner that the boreholes of the front plate (9) are covered at
least partly by the securing plate (18). By virtue of the configuration
of the intervertebral implant, a rigid, firm connection between the
intervertebral implant and the longitudinal fixation elements used to
fasten it, is possible.
