Abstract
The invention relates to a modular anchoring adaptor that engages with existing features of commercially available ALIF cages to help eliminate migration and/or anterior expulsion cause by the instability of the spine, such as lordosis. Such modular adaptor will mate or engage with existing features to enhance anchoring within the vertebral disc space, which space is limited and a low-profile should be maintained.
