An implant has a soft tissue attachment structure, and a surface defining a trough. An ingrowth plate spans a portion of the trough and defines a suture tunnel between the ingrowth plate and the trough for receiving suture. The ingrowth plate bows convexly away from the surface and is perforated to facilitate long-term ingrowth and biologic fixation of soft tissue to the implant.

Devices, method to produce devices and methods to perform bone augmentation using a bag having two membranes on one side and one membrane on the other side which is preferably perforated. The bag can be filled with bone augmenting material. The bag can be used in the jaws while placing the side with the one membrane towards the jaw bone and the side with the two membranes towards the gingiva.

Various joint replacements are disclosed herein, as are methods of use thereof. The joint replacements can have a flexible band or multiple flexible bands that can link together a first part of the joint replacement and a second part of the joint replacement. The flexible band or bands can be tensioned to establish proper tension in the patient's joint. In certain circumstances, the joint replacement can be a shoulder joint replacement.

An implantable tissue repair device containing a body having a biocompatible hydrogel and a rigid support at least partly located within the body or device, or connected to the body or device.

The improved endoprosthetic device surface treatment encourages soft tissue attachment thereto. A porous mesh surface treatment creates on an outer surface of the endoprosthetic device a three-dimensional surface structure similar to cancellous bone. Suture attachment features are provided at various locations around the treated surface structure to initially affix a vascularized soft tissue to the treated surface. As the patient heals the soft tissue grows and infiltrates the porous mesh surface to achieve an attachment strength substantially equal to the surrounding tissue.

A bone structural device including a plurality of bone structural segments, wherein adjacent bone structural segments are pivotally connected to one another about a pivot axis, and the bone structural segments are expandable in height, which is in a direction generally parallel to the pivot axis.

An orthopedic assembly includes a tibial prosthesis that includes a body that defines an anterior side and a posterior side. The body further includes a recess in the anterior side of the joint prosthesis and a plurality of openings that extend through the body from the anterior side to the posterior side thereof. At least a first and second opening of the openings are positioned at respective lateral and medial sides of a longitudinal axis of the tibial prosthesis. A modular insert is positioned within the recess of the body such that at least a portion of the modular insert is positioned between the openings of the body. The modular insert is formed separately from the tibial prosthesis and has a porous outer surface to promote tissue ingrowth.

A method for repairing a cartilage defect according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, preparing a cartilage defect for implantation of a cartilage graft and attaching the cartilage graft via a transosseus tunnel.

An orthopedic assembly includes a tibial prosthesis that includes a body that defines an anterior side and a posterior side. The body further incudes a recess in the anterior side of the joint prosthesis and a plurality of openings that extend through the body from the anterior side to the posterior side thereof. At least a first and second opening of the openings are positioned at respective lateral and medial sides of a longitudinal axis of the tibial prosthesis. A modular insert is positioned within the recess of the body such that at least a portion of the modular insert is positioned between the openings of the body. The modular insert is formed separately from the tibial prosthesis and has a porous outer surface to promote tissue ingrowth.

A collar arranged to couple to a prosthetic component for implantation at the end of a long bone, the prosthetic component having a distal portion arranged to couple to the bone and a proximal neck portion arranged to couple to an articulation component. The collar comprises a plate including a neck hole to receive a neck portion, such that the collar can rotate about the neck portion. The collar further comprises a plurality of attachment portions for coupling the plate to bone fragments or soft tissues. The collar is lockable to the neck portion to prevent further rotation. A prosthesis comprising a combination of a collar, a prosthetic component and an articulation component, and a surgical method of using the collar are also disclosed.
