Arrangement comprising a cervical prosthesis (3) and an insertion instrument, and also a holder (20) which facilitates the connection of the gripping members (2) of the insertion instrument to the prosthesis (3). The holder (20) receives the prosthesis (3) with an exact fit and has, on the anterior face of the prosthesis, an opening (26) for admission of the gripping members (2) of the insertion instrument. The opening (26) contains guide elements (39, 40, 41) for guiding the gripping members (2) of the insertion instrument into a removal position in which the complementary projections (18) and recesses (15) of the gripping members (2) and of the prosthesis lie opposite one another ready to engage (Fig. 4).
