We consider minimal submanifolds of negatively curved spaces with small curvature. We show that in a Hadamard space with negatively pinched curvature $-C\le K\le -1$, complete minimal submanifolds with second fundamental form less than $1$ everywhere bound a class of spheres at infinity for which the asymptotic Plateau problem is uniquely solvable.

Nous étudions les sous-variétés minimales de petite seconde forme fondamentale dans un espace de courbure de négative. Nous montrons que dans un espace de Hadamard de courbure négativement pincée entre $-C$ et $-1$, les sous-variétés minimales complètes de seconde forme fondamentales uniformément bornée par 1 bordent asymptotiquement une famille de sphères pour lesquelles le problème de Plateau asymptotique admet une unique solution.
