Patient-adapted articular repair systems, including implants, instruments, and surgical plans, and methods of making and using such systems, are disclosed herein. In particular, various embodiments include methods of selecting and/or designing patient-adapted surgical repair systems using parameterized models and/or multibody simulations.

A bone press includes a base; a compression plate located opposite to the base; a housing that extends between the base and the compression plate, the housing extending along a longitudinal axis of the bone press; a pressing zone within the housing and between the base and the compression plate along the longitudinal axis of the bone press; and an actuator to provide relative movement between the compression plate and the base to create compression in the pressing zone.

The present invention relates to a system for producing artificial osseous tissue comprising: a client computer acquiring an image information of a subject bone tissue from an imaging unit that picks up an image of a subject bone tissue of a patient to generate a 3D image information; a server computer identifying the subject bone tissue based on the image information of the subject bone tissue received from the client computer, generating a 3D image information of at least one therapeutic bone tissue model corresponding to the subject bone tissue, and transmitting the 3D image information of the at least one therapeutic bone tissue model to the client computer; and a machining unit for fabricating an artificial bone tissue based on the 3D image information of the therapeutic bone tissue model determined from the server computer.

Patient-specific craniofacial implants structured for filling bone voids or planned bone voids in the cranium and face as well as for simultaneously providing soft tissue reconstruction and/or augmentation for improved aesthetic symmetry and appearance of face and skull. Pterional or temporal voids or defects generally result from a chronic skull or lateral facial deformity along with a compromised temporalis muscle or soft tissue distortion from previous surgery. When muscle and fat atrophy occurs in the pterion or temporal face, temporal hollowing deformity generally results where there would be soft tissue but for the atrophy. The patient-specific craniofacial implants with dual-purpose herein are configured to have an augmented region adjacent the temporal region of the face and cranium in order to prevent and/or correct any such temporal hollowing deformity and to utilize this newfound space to strategically embed implantable neurotechnologies for improved outcomes.

A spinal prosthesis is provided, more particularly a spinal prosthesis having component parts capable of assembly during surgery in a spinal environment for providing stability and flexibility to the spine. The component parts include a ball-and-socket combination, a compressible pad, and anchors at each end of the prosthesis to secure the prosthesis in the spine.

Devices, systems, techniques and methods for determining the fit of an implant and for determining one or more prognosticators, indicators or risk factors of postoperative performance are provided.

The present disclosure relates to methods of; non-transitory, computer-readable media for; and systems for fabricating or modifying an implant. One example embodiment includes a method. The method includes registering a plurality of intraoperative locations of a surgically resected anatomical region of a patient. The method also includes generating, based on the registered plurality of intraoperative locations, a two-dimensional representation of the registered plurality of intraoperative locations. Further, the method includes determining, based on the two-dimensional representation, a two-dimensional shape of an anatomical feature excised from the surgically resected anatomical region. In addition, the method includes determining, based on the two-dimensional shape of the anatomical feature and a three-dimensional model of a portion of the patient that contains the surgically resected anatomical region, a three-dimensional shape of the anatomical feature. Still further, the method includes fabricating or modifying an implant based on the three-dimensional shape of the anatomical feature.

Methods and devices are disclosed relating improved articular models, implant components, and related guide tools and procedures. In addition, methods and devices are disclosed relating articular models, implant components, and/or related guide tools and procedures that include one or more features derived from patient-data, for example, images of the patient's joint. The data can be used to create a model for analyzing a patient's joint and to devise and evaluate a course of corrective action. The data also can be used to create patient-adapted implant components and related tools and procedures.

Methods, apparatuses, and systems for customized kit assembly for surgical implants are disclosed. A robotic surgical system designs and customizes a surgical implant and its surgical implant components. The surgical implant and its surgical implant components are assembled into a kit that is customized for a specific patient. The robotic surgical procedure using the kit can additionally select from available generic, off-the-shelf surgical implant components or customized surgical implant components.

A total artificial spinous process (spino)-laminar prosthesis (TASP-LP) including a body having a portion forming a spinous process extending away from the body, a first lamina portion extending from a first side of the body, and a second lamina portion extending from a second side of the body, wherein the first lamina portion and the second lamina portion are disposed on opposite sides of the spinous process.
