Abstract:
To reduce the stress of a patient as much as possible during a percutaneous spine surgery for inserting an interbody cage between two vertebrae, between which the intervertebral disk was damaged and was therefore removed, a guide sleeve is provided for the spine surgery, which is characterized by a non-cylindrical jacket. A kit is further provided for spine surgery with at least one guide sleeve of the above-mentioned type and a dilator, having an outer contour that is adapted to the contour of the lumen of the guide sleeve. A kit for spine surgery is further provided including a guide sleeve and an interbody cage, which is to be inserted through this guide sleeve. The lumen of the guide sleeve is adapted to a maximum cross-sectional contour of the interbody cage.

Claim (Index 20):
A guide sleeve in accordance with  claim 14 , wherein the narrow sides have a greater thickness than the broad sides, the thickness of the broad sides being 0.8 mm to 1.2 mm or the thickness of the narrow sides being greater than 1.2 mm to 1.7 mm or both the thickness of the broad sides being 0.8 mm to 1.2 mm and the thickness of the narrow sides being greater than 1.2 mm to 1.7 mm.
