1. A vertebral fusion device comprising: a fusion cage comprising a right lateral exterior surface, a left lateral exterior surface, a generally flat upper exterior surface, a generally flat lower exterior surface on the opposite side of the cage from the upper exterior surface, serrations disposed
1. A vertebral fusion device comprising: a fusion cage comprising a right lateral exterior surface, a left lateral exterior surface, a generally flat upper exterior surface, a generally flat lower exterior surface on the opposite side of the cage from the upper exterior surface, serrations disposed on at least one of the upper exterior surface and the lower exterior surface, an end wall disposed at a first end of the cage and extending between the right lateral exterior surface and the left lateral exterior surface and between the upper exterior surface and the lower exterior surface, a chamfered end disposed at a second end of the cage opposite the end wall, a conduit extending through the cage from a first opening on the upper exterior surface of the cage to a second opening on the lower exterior surface of the cage, and a passage extending from a third opening on the end wall to a fourth opening on the upper exterior surface, with the passage defining a path through the cage from the third opening on the end wall to the fourth opening on the upper exterior surface; and an elongated anchor having a length extending from a first end of the anchor to a second end of the anchor, the anchor comprising a plate-like body extending between the first end of the anchor and the second end of the anchor, the plate-like body having a rectangular cross section transverse to the length,notches disposed on a lateral side of the plate-like body,an inserted position in which the anchor extends through the passage with the first end of the anchor disposed outside the fourth opening on the upper exterior surface of the cage and in which the second end of the anchor is disposed in the third opening on the end wall. 2. The fusion device of claim 1 in which the upper exterior surface and the lower exterior surface both comprise serrations. 3. The fusion device of claim 1 in which the plate-like body has a section that is curved in a direction along the length of the anchor. 4. The fusion device of claim 1 in which the anchor comprises a stop disposed at the second end of the anchor, and the stop is disposed at the third opening on the end wall with the anchor in the inserted position. 5. The fusion device of claim 4 in which the stop abuts the end wall with the anchor in the inserted position. 6. The fusion device of claim 1 in which the end wall comprises a fifth opening separate from the third opening on the end wall, with the fifth opening on the end wall configured to mate with an insertion instrument. 7. The fusion device of claim 6 in which the end wall comprises a recess disposed away from the fifth opening, the recess being configured to receive a retention pin of an implantation instrument. 8. A device for fusion of adjacent vertebrae comprising: an implant comprising a top surface and a bottom surface,a first conduit extending from an opening in the top surface to an opening in the bottom surface, the first conduit configured to receive a fusion-promoting material through at least one of the opening in the top surface and the opening in the bottom surface,a first side disposed on one side of the first conduit and extending from the top surface to the bottom surface,a second side disposed on a side of the first conduit opposite the first side, the second side extending from the top surface to the bottom surface,a beveled end of the implant connecting the first side and the second side,an end wall connecting the first side and the second side, the end wall disposed at an end of the implant opposite the beveled end and extending from the top surface to the bottom surface, anda second conduit extending from a first opening on the end wall and defining a passage through the end wall sized to receive an anchor; andan anchor that is elongated in an elongation direction, the anchor having a first end and a second end disposed opposite the first end in the elongation direction, and the anchor comprising a flat, plate-like body,an enlarged stop disposed at the second end of the anchor configured to limit insertion of the anchor in the second conduit, andan inserted position in which the first end of the anchor is disposed completely out of the passage and adjacent to but spaced away from the top surface or the bottom surface of the implant, with the enlarged stop abutting the end wall. 9. The device of claim 8 in which the anchor has a section that is curved in the elongation direction. 10. The device of claim 8 in which the end wall comprises a second opening on the end wall separate from the first opening on the end wall, and the second opening on the end wall is configured to mate with a projection of an insertion instrument. 11. The device of claim 10 in which the end wall comprises a recess disposed away from the second opening on the end wall and the recess is configured to receive a retention pin of an implantation instrument. 12. The device of claim 8 further comprising a withdrawal stop configured to inhibit withdrawal of the anchor from the second conduit when the anchor is disposed in the inserted position. 13. The device of claim 12 in which the withdrawal stop comprises a flexible tab disposed on a side of the anchor. 14. The device of claim 8 in which the anchor comprises notches disposed on a lateral side of the anchor. 15. An intervertebral fusion system comprising: an implant comprising an insertion end, an end wall, and opposed side walls extending between the insertion end and the end wall, the opposed side walls defining a rectangular outline in a cross section of the implant transverse to a direction extending between the insertion end and the end wall, and a passage extending from a first opening on the exterior of the end wall through the end wall to a second opening on a top or bottom surface of the implant; andan elongated anchor comprising a smooth surface having a width and an edge disposed angularly to the smooth surface, with the edge having a height less than the width,notches disposed along the edge,a beveled vertebral insertion end, andan enlarged trailing end,the anchor having an inserted position in which the insertion end is disposed completely out of the passage, with the enlarged trailing end contacting the first opening of the end wall. 16. The intervertebral fusion system of claim 15 in which the anchor comprises a curved section. 17. The intervertebral fusion system of claim 16 further comprising a withdrawal stop surface configured to contact the anchor and inhibit withdrawal of the anchor from the passage when the anchor is disposed in the inserted position. 18. The intervertebral fusion system of claim 17 in which the withdrawal stop surface is disposed in the passage and is configured to contact an end of a flexible tab on the anchor. 19. The intervertebral fusion system of claim 18 in which the end wall comprises an attachment opening separate from the first opening, and the attachment opening is configured to mate with a projection of an insertion instrument. 20. The intervertebral fusion system of claim 19 in which the end wall comprises a recess disposed away from the attachment opening and the recess is configured to receive a retention pin of an implantation instrument.
