ABSTRACT:
Instrumentation for distracting an intervertebral space and determining an appropriate size for an artificial intervertebral disc to be implanted therein include static trials and a static trial holder for manipulating the static trials. Each static trial is provided with at least one notch that is engaged by the static trial holder when the static trial is being manipulated thereby, to limit or prevent rotation of the static trial about a longitudinal axis with respect to the static trial holder during the manipulation.
