Abstract
The present invention relates to a cage apparatus for minimal invasive surgery. The cage apparatus includes: a first main body inserted between a first vertebra and a second vertebra adjacent to the first vertebra; a second main body inserted between the first vertebra and the second vertebra to face the first main body; a torsion prevention unit fixed to each of both edges of each of the first and second main bodies and disposed between the first and second main bodies; and a locking unit forwardly/reversely rotatably mounted between the first and second main bodies to suppress movement of the torsion prevention unit between the first and second main bodies. Thus, when the surgery is performed, the cage apparatus may be easily inserted between a vertebra and an adjacent vertebra to previously prevent damage due to torsion from occurring.
