A medical appliance or prosthesis may comprise one or more layers of electrospun nanofibers, including electrospun polymers. The electrospun material may comprise layers including layers of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). Electrospun nanofiber mats of certain porosities may permit tissue ingrowth into or attachment to the prosthesis.

A pelvic implantation device that includes at least two outwardly directed, flat, fastening brackets arranged at an edge of a fastening ring, the fastening ring forming an opening; and a socket support body that includes a convex outer face configured to contact a pelvic bone; a distal edge that extends substantially orthogonally from a circumferential surface of the socket support body; and a tab, wherein the tab forms a portion of the circumferential surface of the socket support body, the tab including a proximal edge that extends substantially orthogonally from a surface of the tab, wherein the distal edge and the proximal edge are configured to contact an upper surface of the fastening ring.

An expandable intervertebral implant is disclosed for use in between adjacent vertebral bodies in a spine. An expandable intervertebral implant may include an upper plate having a first upper side and a second upper side, a lower plate having a first lower side, a second lower side, and a first lattice that connects the first upper side to the first lower side. The expandable intervertebral implant may further include a second lattice that connects the second upper side of the upper plate to the second lower side of the lower plate and an opening having a longitudinal axis between the upper plate, lower plate, first lattice, and second lattice. The expandable intervertebral implant may further include an expansion mechanism comprising a driver that expands the upper plate and the lower plate away from each other along a cephalad-caudal axis by deforming the first lattice and the second lattice.

A spinal stabilization system for use in a vertebral column of a patient, comprising: a multi-layer osteogenic carrier device comprising: a delivery layer comprising a porous material and an osteogenic material; and a support layer in communication with the delivery layer, the support layer capable of substantially conforming to an anatomical feature in the vertebral column of the patient, wherein the support layer holds the delivery layer in proximity to the anatomical feature; at least one rod; at least one rod clip; and at least one fastener are disclosed. The multi-layer osteogenic carrier device can further comprise an adhesive layer capable of adhering the carrier to at least a portion of an anatomical feature, the adhesive layer in communication with at least a portion of the delivery layer.

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to devices (e.g., patches, plugs, beams, plates, screws, rods, granules, spacers, cages, discs, tape devices, or other shape determined by the geometry or anatomy of the site of application) and methods of use thereof.

A multi-layer osteogenic, osteoconductive and/or osteoinductive carrier device or system for applying an osteoinductive substance to a bone surface, and methods for making and using said carrier are disclosed. The multi-layer osteogenic carrier device can comprise a delivery layer comprising a porous material and an osteogenic material; and a support layer in communication with the delivery layer, the support layer capable of substantially conforming to an anatomical feature, wherein the support layer can hold the delivery layer in proximity to the anatomical feature. The multi-layer osteogenic carrier device can further comprise an adhesive layer capable of adhering the carrier to at least a portion of an anatomical feature, the adhesive layer in communication with at least a portion of the delivery layer. The carrier can be applied to and compressed to conform to the decorticated bone of a fusion site and kept in place by a rod clip attached to a spinal stabilization system. The carrier promotes fusion at least in part by providing an osteoinductive and osteoconductive substance at a target fusion site but also has the potential to be used with osteogenic material.

A covering for delivering a substance or material to a surgical site is provided. The covering, with substance provided therein, may be referred to as a delivery system. Generally, the covering may be a single or multi-compartment structure capable of at least partially retaining a substance provided therein until the covering is placed at a surgical site. Upon placement, the covering may facilitate transfer of the substance or surrounding materials. For example, the substance may be released (actively or passively) to the surgical site. The covering may participate in, control, or otherwise adjust the release of the substance. In various embodiments, the covering may be formed of a collagen material and is suitable for a variety of procedure specific uses.

A bone graft system includes a two-dimensional mesh sheet sized and shaped to, when folded along fold lines, form a three-dimensional graft containment structure configured to be packed with a bone graft material for placement within a target area of a bone, the mesh sheet including a first end flap connected to a remaining portion of the mesh sheet via a first fold line and a second end flap connected to the remaining portion of the mesh sheet via a second fold line, a third fold line extending from the first fold line to the second fold line so that the remaining portion is configured to be wrapped around folded first and second end flaps to form the graft containment structure, the first and second end flaps substantially corresponding to a profile of the target area of the bone.

Acetabular implant and method for its manufacture, wherein the implant has a bone side with a contact surface to be fixed against the bone of the hip socket. A plastically deformable zone with an open porous structure connects to the contact surface, the zone being formed by a three-dimensional structure composed of strut elements with opposite ends, wherein these strut elements are connected at their ends in nodes. The zone is made of a material having an elongation at break of at least 15%.

A multi-layer osteogenic, osteoconductive and/or osteoinductive carrier device or system for applying an osteoinductive substance to a bone surface, and methods for making and using said carrier are disclosed. The multi-layer osteogenic carrier device can comprise a delivery layer comprising a porous material and an osteogenic material; and a support layer in communication with the delivery layer, the support layer capable of substantially conforming to an anatomical feature, wherein the support layer can hold the delivery layer in proximity to the anatomical feature. The multi-layer osteogenic carrier device can further comprise an adhesive layer capable of adhering the carrier to at least a portion of an anatomical feature, the adhesive layer in communication with at least a portion of the delivery layer. The carrier can be applied to and compressed to conform to the decorticated bone of a fusion site and kept in place by a rod clip attached to a spinal stabilization system. The carrier promotes fusion at least in part by providing an osteoinductive and osteoconductive substance at a target fusion site but also has the potential to be used with osteogenic material.
