摘要:
Disclosed are single-incision surgical procedures for treatment of urinary incontinence and/or pelvic floor disorders and related uses, devices, kits, and methods. Implants are also disclosed for use in the exemplary procedures. In certain embodiments, soft tissue anchors are used to anchor the surgical implants to obturator membranes of a patient.
摘要:
An ocular implant device (10) that is insertable into either the anterior or posterior chamber of the eye to drain aqueous humor and/or to introduce medications. The implant can include a substantially cylindrical body (14) with a channel member that regulates the flow rate of aqueous humor from the anterior chamber or introduces medications into the posterior chamber, and simultaneously minimizes the ingress of microorganisms into the eye.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a set of tools and accessories used for properly positioning a stemmed humeral component (10), and/or a humeral stem provisional (22), within a canal in the humerus (18). The set of tools and accessories includes one or more fin clamps (60) that are configured to be temporarily attached to a fin (32) on the humeral component (10) or the provisional (22); a ruler (94) that is configured to be attached to the arm (64) of the fin clamp (60), a fixation pin (96) and pin driver (98) configured to be used with the other tools for marking a position on the humerus (18); and one or more sleeves (25) that are configured to slide over the stem (24) of the humeral stem provisional (22) to maintain it in the desired position.
摘要:
An instrumentation set may include insertion instruments for forming an implant between bone structures. The insertion instruments may include a spreader (400) and a separator (300). The bone structures may be vertebrae. Implant members (12) may be attached to the spreader and positioned between the bone structures. The separator may be inserted into the spreader to establish a desired separation distance between the implant members. Connectors (14) may be inserted into the implant members to join the implant members together and form the implant. The insertion instruments may be removed. A seater (1100) may be used to set the position of the connectors relative to the implant members to inhibit disassembly of the implant.
摘要:
A system for trialing a modular hip replacement system (10) permits evaluation and replication of the anatomic anteversion rotational angle of the femur. A distal stem component (18) of the hip replacement system (10) includes a proximal portion (34) having a locator feature (35) that is externally accessible when the stem component is mounted within the femur. A proximal trial body assembly (60) is mounted on the proximal portion (34) of the distal stem component (18) to permit rotation of a trial neck component (62). The trial neck component (62) also includes a locator feature(126) that can be externally referenced to determine the anteversion angle.

摘要:
Leak and tear resistant grafts for repair and replacement of living tissue are disclosed. The grafts (10, 24, 34), which may be flat or tubular, are formed of interlaced filamentary members (12) and have reinforced attachment regions (14) defined by interlaced filamentary members of higher tensile strength (20). Higher strength is provided by use of high strength material, increased denier or number of plies of the filamentary members. High strength members inhibit propagation of tears which occur in the graft when the attachment region is pierced by sutures or staples. Filamentary members formed of textured, elastic or heat shrinkable yarns interlaced in the graft inhibit leakage.
摘要:
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft im Wesentlichen ein Hüftgelenkspfannensystem zur "press-fit" - Verankerung im knöchernen Acetabulum, das es ermöglicht, nicht nur die mit dem künstlichen Kopf artikulierenden Inserts sicherer zu verbinden, sondern mit diesen auch das Rotationszentrum der Pfanne zu rekonstruieren, die Luxationsgefahr zu bannen und die Krafteinleitungsebene stufenlos in einem definierten Winkelbereich zu verändern.
摘要:
A shoulder prosthesis (10) including a fracture stem has a body having an exterior surface, a shank (50) attached to the body (40) and a head (30). The body (40) includes a medial fin (42), an anterior fin (43) and a posterior fin (44). The medial fin (42) includes a suture hole (42a). The anterior (43) and posterior (44) fins each include a plurality of suture holes. The prosthesis further includes a lateral suture hole (45a) intersecting the exterior surface of the body (40). The lateral suture hole (45a) may be formed in a projection (45) on the lateral side of the prosthesis (10). In an alternative embodiment, a trail prosthesis includes indicia for noting the proper placement of the stem. The prosthesis includes corresponding indicia for replicating the placement of the trial stem.
