Abstract

The present invention relates to an osseous anchoring device intended to maintain a prosthesis or an implant in position, and in particular an anchoring device for an intervertebral prosthesis. The anchoring device for a prosthesis (1), or an implant, is intended to be anchored in a prepared osseous surface (310, 321). It comprises at least one protruding element extending beyond the prosthesis, this protruding element being able to be positioned relative to the prosthesis in a plurality of positions thus making it possible to choose a position adapted to the case to be treated or to the chosen mode of inserting the prosthesis or the anchoring device.
