Abstract: A modular prosthesis rasp is provided, having a rasp body with a rasp main body and at least one modular rasp body part connectable to the main body. The rasp main body has a receptacle for receiving the at least one rasp body part. An outer contour is defined by the rasp main body and the at least one rasp body part. The rasp body part receptacle extends from an indentation, defining a distal end of the receptacle, on a lateral side of the rasp main body to a proximal end thereof. A first tangential plane of the lateral side of the outer contour in the region of the indentation and a second tangential plane at a rasp body part contact surface, in the region of the distal end of the receptacle include an indentation angle of less than 85°.

Abstract: A modular prosthesis rasp comprises a rasp body having a rasp main body and at least one modular rasp body part connectable to the rasp main body. The rasp main body comprises a rasp body part receptacle for receiving the at least one rasp body part in a connected position in which the rasp main body and the at least one rasp body part are connected to each other, and in which the rasp body defines an outer contour defined partly by the rasp main body and partly by the at least one rasp body part. The rasp body part receptacle extends from an indentation, defining a distal end of the rasp body part receptacle, on a lateral side of the rasp main body to a proximal end of the rasp main body.

Abstract: A spinal column implant is provided for contact with a vertebral body. The implant includes at least one contact surface including a contact plane having a cross-sectional area in contact with the vertebral body. The shape and arrangement of the at least one contact surface is adjustable such that the cross-sectional area of the contact plane is larger in a contact position than in an insertion position.
