Bone graft and method of making and using same
A spinal bone graft includes one or more cortical bone portions forming a first unit. The first unit includes an engagement surface for contacting bone, and a mating surface. The mating surface forms at least one first undercut. The bone graft also includes one or more cortical bone portions forming a second unit. The second unit includes an engagement surface for contacting bone, and a mating surface. The mating surface forms either at least one second undercut, or at least one connector. In the former, at least one connector is received in each of the first and second undercuts to interconnect the first and second units. In the latter, the at least one connector of the second unit is received in the first undercut of the first unit to interconnect the first unit and second unit.
Hip Joint Device
The disclosed medical device comprises an elongated portion adapted to at least partially replace the collum femur wherein said elongated portion is adapted to be at least one of integrated in and connected to a prosthetic spherical portion adapted to replace the caput femur, and wherein said prosthetic spherical portion in turn is adapted to be movably placed in a prosthetic replacement for the acetabulum having at least one extending portion for clasping said prosthetic spherical portion. Further, the elongated portion comprises a restricting portion adapted to restrict the motion range of the spherical portion in relation to said prosthetic replacement for the acetabulum, and wherein said restricting portion of said elongated portion comprises at least one recess adapted to receive a portion of said prosthetic artificial acetabulum, when implanted, to enable an advantageous motion range in relation to said prosthetic replacement for the acetabulum.
Assembled vertebral body
The invention relates to an assembled vertebral body used in a cervical reconstruction operation, comprising: an upper connecting element, an artificial vertebral body element and a lower connecting element, wherein the upper connecting element is disposed at an upper part of the artificial vertebral body element, the lower connecting element is disposed at an lower part of the artificial vertebral body element, and wherein the artificial vertebral body element is assembled with the upper connecting element and the lower connecting element, respectively. The invention has the advantages that the artificial vertebral body element is customized in accordance with the characteristics of patients and printed in 3D, and the length of the artificial vertebral body element can be precisely adjusted to adapt to the patient. Since the lower connecting element is standard part, the upper connecting element is standard part or non-standard part, and the artificial vertebral body element is non-standard part, in comparison to the traditional 3D printing which needs to be printed integrally, the adjustable assembled artificial vertebral body can reduce 3D printing materials and reduce the cost of 3D printing, thus reducing medical costs for the patient. The shape of the nested parts of the elements is a non-circular shape, which can resist rotation, so that no relative movement occurs among the three elements of the artificial vertebral body.

Hip joint device
A medical device for implantation in a hip joint of a patient; the hip joint having a caput femur integrated with a collum femur having a collum and caput center axis, extending longitudinal along the collum and caput femur, in the center thereof. The medical device comprises an elongated portion adapted to at least partially replace the collum femur, wherein said elongated portion is adapted to be at least one of integrated in and connected to a prosthetic spherical portion adapted to replace the caput femur, and wherein said prosthetic spherical portion in turn is adapted to be movably placed in a prosthetic replacement for the acetabulum having at least one extending portion for clasping said prosthetic spherical portion.

Anatomical Wedge Implant
An osteotomy implant includes a first surface extending generally in a first plane and a second surface extending generally in a second plane, oblique to the first plane. The first surface has a perimeter having a first linear edge, a first curve edge connected to the first linear edge, a second linear edge connected to the first curved edge, and a second curved edge connected to the second liner edge.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CORRECTING SCOLIOSIS
A wedge has an outer perimeter and includes a top surface extending generally in a first plane and having a top osteointegration surface disposed thereon. A bottom surface extends in a second plane that extends obliquely with respect to the first plane. The first plane intersects the second plane outside the outer perimeter of the implant and includes a bottom osteointegration surface disposed thereon. A plurality of side surfaces extends between the top surface and the bottom surface and defines the outer perimeter, wherein at least a portion of the plurality of side surfaces is devoid of any osteointegration surface.
