A STRAPPING DEVICE FOR STABILISING A PERIPROSTHETIC FRACTURE
The present disclosure relates to an implantable strapping device comprising an elongate hollow textile element comprising an attachment portion and an adjustable loop, the perimeter of the adjustable loop is adjustable by sliding a portion of the adjustable loop in an interior volume of a sleeve arranged in the textile element, and a strapping closing member comprising a front part with which the adjustable loop or the attachment portion is connected, and a rear part comprising a first U-shaped housing configured to receive part of the attachment portion or of the adjustable loop. The strapping device thus comprises a clamping position of the strapping by sliding the adjustable loop in the sleeve, and a locking position in which the sliding of the adjustable loop is prevented by the sleeve.
FEMORAL NECK-PRESERVING ARTIFICIAL HIP JOINT FEMORAL PROSTHESIS
The present disclosure comprises a ball head, a neck part, a cover body, and a fastener, wherein the cover body is in a shape of a thin-walled cup, including a cup buckled and embedded on the femoral neck left after the femoral head is removed and a circle of skirt plates attached to the lower edge of the cup to extend the covering range of the cup to the femoral neck and the intertrochanteric femur; a through hole for a cable to penetrating through is formed in the tail end of each skirt plate, and a limiting clip for limiting the cable for cerclage of the cup is arranged outside the skirt plate; and then stable rigid connection is conducted using a compression ring; and the fastener comprises a screw or an additional perforated steel plate and a cable which is fixed in a cerclage and tension manner.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BONE FIXATION
A fracture fixation system includes a connector having a proximal connecting end for connecting to a first end of a cord configured to extend around a bone to provide fixation to a fracture of the bone. The connector includes a distal connecting end opposite the connector relative to the proximal end for attaching to a second end of the cord extending around the bone. The proximal connecting end includes a proximal lock member, a distal lock member and a medial lock member between the proximal lock member and the distal lock member. The proximal lock member is located at a bottom of the proximal connecting end and the medial lock member is located at a top of the proximal connecting end.
KIT, PLATE, INSERT, AND METHOD FOR TREATING A CLAVICLE
The invention relates to a kit comprising at least one insert (10, 20) and a plate (1) for treating a bone, specifically a clavicle (B). The plate (1) has a receptacle (6) for the insert (10, 20). The insert (10, 20) has an outer contour (C″) and/or the receptacle (6) has an inner contour (C), wherein the outer contour (C″) and the inner contour (C) fit each other such that the insert (10, 20) inserted into the receptacle (6) can pivot about an axis which runs substantially parallel to a plate top side (0).
HUMERAL CLAMPS FOR NAVIGATED SHOULDER ARTHROPLASTY
A device for registering a bone for a robotic shoulder arthroplasty with a surgical robot. The device can include a first portion engageable with a first portion of a bone and can include a second portion engageable with a second portion of the bone, the second portion connected to the first portion and rotatable with respect to the first portion. The device can include a registration device connectable to the first portion and configured to interface with the surgical robot for registration of the device and the bone. The device can include an actuator engageable with the first portion and the second portion to move the second portion toward a closed position away from an open position.
Bone closure assembly
A bone closure assembly that includes a buckle and a strap having a first end fixedly attached to the buckle. The strap is configured for looping around bone portions. The bone closure assembly also includes a locking cap removably connected to the buckle. The locking cap is configured for securing the strap within the buckle to secure the bone portions together.

METHOD OF PLACING AN IMPLANT BETWEEN BONE PORTIONS
Devices and methods for placing an implant between two bone portions are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method comprises disposing a portion of a flexible member through a first bone portion, through an aperture in a trial implant, and through a second bone portion. The trial implant can be withdrawn to enable an implant to be coupled to the flexible member. The method includes applying tension to the flexible member to urge the implant into the space between two bone portions. In some embodiments, the two bone portions are facets.

SYSTEMS, DEVICES AND METHODS FOR TISSUE FIXATION AND APPROXIMATING TISSUE DEFECTS
A medical device for approximating and securing tissue without requiring knots includes a lock-head, a strap section, distal protuberance, and a leader section. The device also includes a transition section between the leader and the strap section and a stiffening section proximal to the protuberance. The leader section is used to draw the strap section into the body through small apertures in tissue and the transition section provides a gradual transition in stiffness and size between the leader and the strap section.
