Abstract

The present invention is directed to a device with that can be placed between two vertebrae. The implant is characterized by having a first plate (110) and a second plates (120) with a crossbar (130) therebetween. The crossbar fits within cavities (150) on each of the first and second plate and allows for pivotal or rotational motion and also for twisting.
