20190029837 · 2019-01-31 ·

A subtalar implant for arthroereisis of the talocalcaneal joint. The implant being intended to be inserted into the talocalcaneal joint via its lateral orifice and having an oblong shape that extends longitudinally along an axis of insertion of the implant. The implant includes: a head with the shape of a cone of revolution centred on the axis of insertion; an anchoring thread; and a rod having the shape of a cylinder of revolution. The rod has, on its surface, the anchoring thread and being intended to be inserted up to the axis of rotation of the talocalcaneal joint. The head has, on its radially outer surface, a retaining element for retaining the implant in rotation about the axis of insertion, the retaining element being exerting retention against a colonising tissue.

Modular humeral head resurfacing system

A set of surgical components for use in a joint arthroplasty to reconstruct a head of a joint is provided. The set of surgical components can include a head member having a first articulating surface opposite a first fixation surface. The first fixation surface can define a first portion that extends outwardly from the first fixation surface. The set of surgical components can include a base member having a fixation peg with three generally triangular fins and a second fixation surface defined as a recess within a top surface of the fixation peg. The first portion of the head member can be received within the recess of the base member to couple the head member to the base member.

A prosthetic system is disclosed for providing motion between a first bone and a second bone of a joint. The system can comprise a support structure (e.g., sleeve or a cone) having a first end surface, a second end surface, an exterior surface extending from the first end surface to the second end surface, and an inner surface defining a passageway extending from the first end surface to the second end surface, wherein the exterior surface of the support structure is configured to be received in a cavity of the first bone such that the first end surface is flush with or beneath a surface of the first bone. The first end surface is within an axial plane defined by the first end surface and an outermost edge of the first end surface, and a longitudinal axis of the passageway of the support structure is offset with respect to a geometric center point of the axial plane.

EXPANDABLE INTERBODY DEVICE

An expandable interbody device for placement between adjacent vertebrae having an upper structure, a lower structure and a screw mechanism, wherein actuation of the screw mechanism moves the upper and lower structures between a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration. A deployment tool couples to the expandable interbody device for positioning the device between adjacent vertebrae, actuating the screw mechanism and delivering a material to a chamber of the expandable interbody device.

A subtalar joint implant (20) is disclosed for replacing a natural subtalar joint existing between the talus (102) and calcaneum (104) bones of a patient. In an embodiment the implant comprises talar (22) and calcaneal (24) portions that are configured to slide over each other in the implanted state. The implant is shaped so that the sliding is constrained to trajectories that involve pivoting of the talar portion relative to the calcaneal portion about a pivot point (36) or a line (38) of pivot points.

RENOVATED TITANIUM MESH
20180271658 · 2018-09-27 ·

The present invention discloses a renovated titanium mesh used for repairing bone defects in knee joint replacement. The renovated titanium mesh (1) includes transverse ribs (2) for implanting the renovated titanium mesh into a human body and longitudinal ribs (3) for supporting the transverse ribs (2). The transverse ribs (2) and the longitudinal ribs (3) are crisscrossed to form the meshed renovated titanium mesh (1). In the renovated titanium mesh of the present invention, the meshed structure of the renovated titanium mesh can ensure the bone ingrowth of a patient, and the renovated titanium mesh can be cut to provide a high degree of matching for the patient and to thus satisfy the patient's demand; the renovated titanium mesh can better ensure the bone ingrowth of the patient and be advantageous for the later recovery of the patient.

Exemplary embodiments are directed to an augment and methods of implanting an augment. The methods include inserting the augment into a bone cavity of a bone of a host. The augment includes a body with an outer surface and at least one hole preformed in the body. The method includes introducing a fastener from an outer surface of the bone into a hole formed in the bone and engaging the fastener with the hole of the bone. The method includes passing the fastener through the hole of the bone. The method includes introducing into and engaging the fastener with the at least one hole in the body of the augment to fixate the augment within the bone cavity.

Modular humeral head resurfacing system

A two piece humeral component for use in joint arthroplasty which is adapted to be implanted into a joint and engaged by a socket component of the joint.
