A modular prosthetic device is described. The modular prosthetic device is
provided with an anchoring device having first and second end members,
the first and second end members cooperating to receive a prosthetic
insertion device. The first and second end members each include a first
surface, at least one vertebral-engaging member extending from the first
surface, a second surface in an opposed relation to the first surface,
and at least one flange extending from the second surface. The anchoring
device is adapted to receive a variety of prosthetic insertion devices
such that the modular prosthetic device can be revised into a variety of
modular prosthetic devices. A stacking member is also provided for use
with the anchoring device to provide a variety of modular, stackable
prosthetic devices.
