Interbody device and plate for spinal stabilization and instruments for positioning same

A system comprising:

• a plate including a body having a top surface and an opposite bottom surface, the body including a plurality of holes extending through the top and bottom surfaces, trajectories of each of the holes extending toward a common point above the plate, the plate including a retaining element comprising arms that are separated by gaps, the retaining element being rotatable between a first position where the gaps are aligned with the holes and a second position where the arms overlap the holes.

A system for providing spinal stabilization, comprising:

• a plate including holes that each extend through a thickness of the plate, trajectories of each of the holes extending toward a common point above the plate, the plate including a retaining element comprising arms that are separated by gaps, the retaining element being rotatable between a first position where the gaps are aligned with the holes and a second position where the arms overlap the holes.

A system comprising:

• a plate including spaced apart holes that each extend through a thickness of the plate, trajectories of each of the holes extending toward a common point above the plate, the plate including a retaining element comprising arms that are separated by gaps, the retaining element being rotatable between a first position where the gaps are aligned with the holes and a second position where the arms overlap the holes.
