Exemplary cutting and alignment guide assemblies for use in microsurgical, plastic surgical, otolaryngological, maxillofacial, orthopedic, dental, or other surgical procedures include a first section configured to engage a first bone graft section, a second section configured to engage a second bone graft section, a first fixation mechanism configured to couple the first section with the first bone graft section, and a second fixation mechanism configured to couple the second section with the second bone graft section. The first section and the second section can be coupled via a hinge mechanism. Neo-mandible assemblies for implantation at a native mandibular defect of a patient can include a cutting and alignment guide coupled with one or more bone graft sections. In some cases, bone graft sections include bone segments from a fibula of the patient.

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.

Devices, systems, and methods of bone stabilization. The bone stabilization system includes a variety of plates, including a tine plate. The tine plate may include an elongate body and first and second ears extending from the elongate body, each of the first and second ears defining a screw hole therethrough, and a first tine extending from the first ear and a second tine extending from the second ear, the first and second tines each terminating at a sharp point.

A system for assisting a surgeon in implanting hook plate-type bone plates includes a cannulated multiple barreled drill guide, a cannulated inserter/impactor, and a cannulated fastener coupling the inserter/impactor to a bone plate. The multiple barreled drill guide facilitates the drilling of at least two parallel holes at the distal end of a bone at the correct position and angle of entry, and includes a body and two drill guide channels coupled to the body in substantially parallel orientation relative to each other, with a guide pin aperture disposed between and substantially parallel to the drill guide tubes. The inserter/impactor likewise includes a central channel accommodating the same guide pin employed to place and align the multiple barreled drill guide.

Devices, systems, and methods of bone stabilization. The bone stabilization system includes a bone plate having an upper surface and a lower surface configured to be in contact with bone, the bone plate having an opening extending from the upper surface to the lower surface. The opening is configured to receive a fastener, which may be either a locking fastener or a compression fastener. The locking fastener has a threaded head portion configured to engage and lock to the bone plate, and the compression fastener is configured to dynamically compress the bone.

Disclosed herein are a bone plating system and a method for utilizing the same. The bone plating system may include first and second bone plates in contact with respective first and second bones, a cross-connector, a cutting guide and a targeter device. The cross-connector may have a first end and an opposite second extending along a longitudinal axis from the first bone plate to the second bone plate. The cutting guide may have an elongate body placed on one of the first or second bones. The targeter device may have a drill guide to align the cross-connector with the first and second bone plates. A method for fixing the bone plating system to the first and second bone may include using the targeter device.

The present application relates to a spherical bead (30) to be interposed between a locking bone screw head (2) and a receiving hole (34) in a bone plate (10) and to an implant construct comprising such a bead.

Variable angle holes in bone plates structured to facilitate the formation of axial compression or tension of a bone, or which can assist in bone distraction. The variable angle hole can extend about a central axis and includes an inwardly extending wedge wall. The variable angle hole can be sized to receive insertion of a fixation element at a location at which a central longitudinal axis of the fixation element is axially offset from the central axis of the variable angle hole by an offset distance at least when the fixation element is initially driven into bone at least in a transverse direction. The wedge wall can be configured to be engaged by a portion of the fixation element in a manner that axially displaces at least one of the bone plate, the fixation element, and/or bone(s) in a direction that can generally reduce or increase the offset distance.
