A bone implant includes at least one bone-engaging surface designed to mate with an implant-engaging surface of a bone. In the preferred embodiment, the bone-engaging surface of the implant includes a wave pattern comprising at least one peak extending in a proximal direction or at least one valley extending in a distal direction. The implant-engaging surface of the bone also includes a matching wave pattern having at least one peak and valley. Upon mating the engaging surfaces, a bone-implant interface may be created wherein the peaks and valleys of the wave patterns are aligned. As a result, there is good surface contact area at the bone-implant interface which helps prevent loosening or rotating of the implant.

A bone implant composition and methods thereof include bone material made into various implant shapes including a cylinder having an outermost layer and an inner layer completely surrounded by the outermost layer. The bone implant compositions and methods include a bag or cylindrical tube made from a bone material which may be filled with additional bone material.

A maxillofacial orthognathic fixation implant assembly and its method of production and use, the implant being an assembly of an upper anchor implant member, a lower anchor implant member and at least one bridging implant member, the anchor implant members being adapted to be securely mounted to a maxilla and the at least one bridging implant member being adapted to connect the upper anchor implant member to the lower anchor implant member in a fixed and rigid manner. With the anchor implant members affixed to the maxilla and the maxilla surgically separated between the upper and lower anchor implant members to create a lower portion detached an upper portion, the at least one bridging implant member is connected between the upper and lower anchor implant members to secure and maintain the lower portion of the maxilla in a desired post-operative position relative to the upper portion of the maxilla.

Resorbable implants, coverings and receptacles comprising poly(butylene succinate) and copolymers thereof have been developed. The implants are preferably sterilized, and contain less than 20 endotoxin units per device as determined by the limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) assay, and are particularly suitable for use in procedures where prolonged strength retention is necessary, and can include one or more bioactive agents. The implants may be made from fibers and meshes of poly(butylene succinate) and copolymers thereof, or by 3d printing molding, pultrusion or other melt or solvent processing method. The implants, or the fibers preset therein, may be oriented. These coverings and receptacles may be used to hold, or partially/fully cover, devices such as pacemakers and neurostimulators. The coverings, receptacles and implants described herein, may be made from meshes, webs, lattices, non-wovens, films, fibers, foams, molded, pultruded, machined and 3D printed forms.

The present invention includes a method for generating a three-dimensional model of a bone. The method may further include generating a cut plan for excavating a portion of the bone according to the cut plan to allow the insertion of a custom implant. In a particular arrangement, the method may includes excavating the bone with an autonomous extremity excavator utilizing the cut plan generated by a processor. In a further arrangement, the method may include generating a digital model of a custom implant and generating, using the digital model, a physical model sharing the same dimensions as the digital module using manufacturing device.

A medical implant which comprises a porous lattice is fabricated with additive manufacturing techniques such as direct metal laser sintering. A CAD model of the porous lattice is created by defining a trimming volume and merging some lattice elements with adjacent solid substrate.

Methods and devices for correcting wear pattern defects in joints. The methods and devices described herein allow for the restoration of correcting abnormal biomechanical loading conditions in a joint brought on by wear pattern defects, and also can, in embodiments, permit correction of proper kinematic movement.

A method for providing sub-elements of a multipart implant or a multi-part osteosynthesis prior to introducing same into a human and/or animal body, involves: A) detecting data of a patient for whom the implant and/or the osteosynthesis is intended; B) generating a model using the detected data; C) generating manufacture specifications for at least two or more sub-elements which can be combined so as to form an implant and/or an osteosynthesis on the basis of the generated model, said manufacture specifications comprising C1) a dimensioning of the sub-elements; and D) manufacturing the sub-elements on the basis of the manufacture specifications. The sub-elements can be assembled together so as to form an implant or an osteosynthesis.

A resorbable scaffold for partial meniscus regeneration. The resorbable scaffold includes a polymer filament network and a matrix in the polymer filament network. The polymer filament network includes alternating layers of circumferentially-oriented filaments and radially-oriented filaments, and has a three-dimensional shape and geometry which is substantially the same as a three-dimensional shape and geometry of the resorbable scaffold.

The present invention relates generally to biocompatible medical devices, such as cranial implants, and a method and means of attaching to hone. More specifically, the present invention relates to multilayered porous material with controlled porosity and drug load designed to control the release of drugs from a medical device. Additionally the present invention provides methods for controlling release of drugs by integrating the multilayer structure in medical devices with successive layers of polymer coatings of different porosities and drug contents. The multilayer material is inserted in between two plates such as meshes that provide strength to the implant. The present invention relates to biocompatible medical devices that has osseointegration and antibacterial properties. The present invention also relates to a method and means of attaching the medical device to defect in a bone structure and comprises of tree mounting parts configured to secure the medical in place.
