    摘要: Fastening mechanisms for releasably locking a tether are provided. The mechanisms find application with orthopedic internal-fixation implants and make the implants more reliable and their implantation less invasive. A method for releasably locking a tether comprises advancing the tether through a tether aperture in a clamp body. The tether enters the tether aperture in a first plane and exits in a second plane generally transverse to the first plane. Positioning a fastener element in a fastener aperture in the clamp body captures the tether between the clamp body and the fastener element thereby releasably locking the tether in position relative to the clamp body.

    摘要: A surgical fastening mechanism for releasably locking an implantable tether includes a housing having a central channel. The housing has an entry aperture, an exit aperture and a side channel extending therebetween. A roller element has a sidewall with an aperture therethrough and the roller is slidably disposed at least partially in the central channel such that the entry and exit apertures are at least partially aligned with the roller aperture. This permits passage of the tether therethrough. Rotation of the roller element in a first direction winds the tether around the roller thereby creating a friction interface between the roller element, the housing and the tether. A locking mechanism is operably connected with either the housing or the roller element and is adapted to prevent rotation of the roller in the central channel and also adapted to prevent release of the tether from the roller.

    摘要: A method for coupling a prosthesis to a spinal segment in a patient includes the steps of selecting first and second reference points disposed along the spinal segment and pre-operatively measuring a target distance. The target distance extends between the first and second reference points while the patient is in a preferred posture such as the standing position. A prosthesis is coupled to the spinal segment and the prosthesis is then intra-operatively adjusted in order to set the distance between the first and second reference points based on the target distance.

    摘要: Tumor tissue, including soft and/or bony tissue, are harvested from a subject and morcellated. The morcellated tissue is placed in a cartridge which is placed in a containment chamber of a tumor tissue processing device. Cancer cells in the morcellated tumor tissue are destroyed without destroying tumor antigens therein. These cells are destroyed cryogenically by exposing the cartridge to a cooling fluid such as liquid nitrogen, optionally with a warming cycle, and optionally with more than one freezing/thawing cycle. The treated tissue and/or cells are then extracted from the cartridge and reintroduced to the subject after they have reached a threshold condition. The treated tissue and/or cells can be reintroduced via a containment sleeve or a reimplantation bag.

    摘要: Described here are deformable, monolithic, stabilization devices, or implants, suitable for use within bone and between bones, for instance, to fuse vertebral bodies, to repair herniated discs, or to repair spinal compression fractures. The implants are introduced into a chosen site at a first, smaller height and then plastically deformed to achieve a second, but unique, pre-selected, larger height. Variations of the device provide one or more specific larger heights. The devices are particularly suitable as intervertebral spinal fusion implants for the immobilization of adjacent vertebral bodies. Methods of deploying the implants are also described as are instruments for such deployment.Also described are variations of the device particularly suitable as sizing instruments. These versions are elastic, i.e., not plastically deformable, and may be restored to their original size. Many of the described variations include deformable regions serving as hinges. Other variations are non-monolithic or may have one or more classical hinges substituted for the deformable regions.
