Zusammenfassung:There is disclosed an intervertebral trial for assessing an intervertebral disc space, the trial comprising: a distal head (85) having an upper surface (87), a lower surface (89), and a proximal end portion (90) comprising a substantially spherical element (91); a sheath (93) having a throughbore (95) having a threaded portion (97); and a rod (99) disposed in the throughbore, the rod having a distal end portion (101) forming a poppet (102), a threaded intermediate portion (103), and a proximal end portion (105). The threaded intermediate portion of the rod threadably mates with the threaded portion of the sheath. The substantially spherical element of the distal head is rotatably received in the poppet to form a universal joint.
