Abstract
A connection assembly for spinal osteosynthesis has a bone-anchor having a connection zone intended to cooperate with a connection device, in which the connection device has, in its lower part, a spherical shape in order to permit a free positioning of the connection device in connector. The connector has a cavity of complementary shape to the spherical shape. This spherical shape forms a limit of longitudinal positioning with the connector.
