MODULAR PROSTHESIS FOR AT LEAST PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF A TUBULAR BONE ADJOINING A JOINT
Modular endoprosthesis for at least partial replacement of a tubular bone, comprising, as module components, a stem for insertion into a bone cavity of the tubular bone, and an end piece comprising a support body with a neck part arranged on the medial aspect thereof. Said module components being able to be coupled to each other and released from each other along a longitudinal axis of the shaft. The end piece has at least two different surface configurations on its support body, namely a closed surface (6′) on a medial aspect, and a porous configuration of the surface on the opposite, lateral aspect. The latter permits and positions the adhesion of muscle tissue, specifically without suturing. The muscle trauma caused by suturing, and the peak loads that occur at the respective suture points, can thus be avoided by virtue of the invention, by means of the location-specific direct adhesion of the muscle. It is thus possible to achieve quicker and reliable mobilization of the patient, and this with a reduced risk of complications.
Glenoidal component, set of such components and shoulder prosthesis incorporating such a glenoidal component
This glenoidal component for a shoulder prosthesis comprises a base which may be immobilized on the glenoid cavity of a shoulder, and an element provided to be mounted on this base and forming a convex surface of articulation centred on an axis of symmetry. This axis of symmetry is non perpendicular to a rear face of the base intended to abut against the glenoid cavity, this making it possible to compensate a defect in parallelism between the resectioned surface of the glenoid cavity and the axis of the patient's spinal column. A surgeon can select the component in which the axes of symmetry of the components are oriented differently with respect to their rear faces.
In-situ additive implants
An in-situ additive-manufacturing system for growing an implant in-situ for a patient. The system has a multi-nozzle dispensing subsystem and a distal control arm. The multi-nozzle dispensing subsystem in one embodiment includes first and second dispensing nozzles. The first and second nozzles include first and second printing-material delivery channels, respectively. In another embodiment, the in-situ additive-manufacturing system includes a multi-material subsystem having a dispensing nozzle including first and second printing material delivery channels. Controlling computing and robotics componentry are provided. In various aspects, respective storage for first and second printing materials, and one or more pumping structures, are provided.
SYSTEM FOR IMPLANTING A SPINAL FUSION IMPLANT AND RELATED METHODS
The present invention relates generally to medical devices, systems, and methods for use in surgery. In particular, the disclosed system and methods relate to an intervertebral spinal implant sized and dimensioned for the lumbar spine implantable via a posterior approach. The system includes an implant, instruments for delivering the implant.
INTERSPINOUS STABILIZATION DEVICE
Provided herein is an interspinous stabilization device, including: a central connection portion, a first side wing, a second side wing, a third side wing, and a fourth side wing. The first side wing extends from the central connection portion in a first direction. The second side wing extends from the central connection portion in the first direction. The third side wing extends from the central connection portion in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The fourth side wing extends from the central connection portion in the second direction. The central connection portion has at least one thread hole. The thread hole extends in a third direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The first side wing, the second side wing, the third side wing, and the fourth side wing each have a through hole.
Cervical spine spacer
A cervical spine spacer includes a spacer body configured to be disposed between adjacent cervical vertebrae in the cervical spine and to maintain a desired spacing between the adjacent cervical vertebrae. The cervical spine spacer also includes a channel passing completely through the spacer body from a first surface of the spacer body to a second surface of the spacer body and a fastener configured to pass through the channel. At least one of the first surface and the second surface is configured to contact one of the adjacent cervical vertebrae and the channel is sized to accommodate the fastener passing through the channel at a plurality of angles.
Inserter for implanting a spinal implant
The present invention relates generally to medical devices, systems, and methods for use in surgery. In particular, the disclosed system and methods relate to an intervertebral spinal implant sized and dimensioned for the lumbar spine implantable via a posterior approach. The system includes an implant, instruments for delivering the implant.
Flexible interbody spacer and methods for use
The present disclosure includes implant systems, devices, and implants. The interbody spacers including a first endplate, a second endplate, and a coupling member coupled to and extending between the first endplate and the second endplate. Methods of using the interbody spacers are also disclosed.
FEMORAL NECK-PRESERVING ARTIFICIAL HIP JOINT FEMORAL PROSTHESIS
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.
