    摘要: One aspect of the disclosure relates to an extramedullary biocompatible implant for moving bone in a patient's body. In some cases, the implant includes: a first plate configured to be attached to bone at a first location; a second plate configured to be attached to bone at a second location; and a distractor extending from the first plate and being at least partially contained within the second plate, where the distractor houses a drive system including a driver and a gear system coupled with the driver, and where the drive system is configured to cause translation of the second plate relative to the first plate.

    摘要: An intramedullary lengthening device includes a housing and a distraction shaft. The intramedullary lengthening device is placed within a cavity of two bone sections (either already separated or purposely separated for insertion of the device). The distraction shaft of the intramedullary lengthening device is attached to the one of the bone sections using, for example, one or more attachment screws. The housing of the intramedullary lengthening device is attached to the second bone section using, for instance, one or more attachment screws. Over the treatment period, the bone is continually distracted, creating a new separation into which osteogenesis can occur. In one embodiment, the intramedullary lengthening device includes an actuator and an extension rod, which can be attached to one other.
