A system for stabilizing an intervertebral segment includes an intervertebral implant having a first plate, a second plate, and an articulating joint coupling the first and second plates, whereby at least one of the plates has an inner surface having at least one hole. The system includes an instrument for holding the implant, the system having a shaft with a proximal end, a distal end and a longitudinal axis extending between the proximal and distal ends, a body attached to the distal end of the shaft, and a pin having a hooked end that is extendable from the body for being inserted into the at least one hole of the implant so as to couple the implant with the distal end of the holding instrument.
