ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a cervical plate and bone graft(s) that are capable of being attached prior to insertion of the bone graft into an intervertebral space. After insertion, the vertebrae hold the bone graft and cervical plate in place facilitating the anchoring of the cervical plate to the vertebrae. Further, a screw back out prevention device can be coupled to the cervical plate to prevent screws from backing out.
