摘要:
A surgical procedure according to which a cutting blade is positioned over an area of the bone to be cut and indicia is projected onto the area. The blade is adjusted relative to the area until the indicia takes a predetermined configuration on the area corresponding to the desired position of the blade relative to the area. Then the blade can be driven to cut an opening in the bone.
摘要:
A surgical procedure for implanting tissue from a cadaver/autograft bone into a recipient site at an anatomical area of a patient, and a computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program for use in the surgical procedure.
摘要:
A surgical procedure for implanting a graft according to which a dilator is inserted in a recipient opening and the graft is inserted in the dilator to cause outward expansion of the dilator into engagement with the portion of a bone surrounding the opening. After the dilator is removed from the opening, the bone surrounding the opening collapses around the graft to secure the graft in the opening.
摘要:
A surgical procedure according to which a moldable material is positioned over a defect and over an area of the anatomy surrounding the defect so that the moldable material takes the shape of the area. After the moldable material forms a mold, a graft is placed on the mold; and cut to conform to a dimension of the defect.
摘要:
A method, device and system or kit treat a lesion by injecting a contrasting agent into a body area to distinguish an osteolytic lesion for imaging; and delivering an effective amount of a debridement fluid to debride the distinguished lesion.
摘要:
Disclosed are methods for the preservation and storage of living biological tissues, organs, and populations of isolated cells. Also disclosed are compositions and methods to permit biological samples (including e.g., cells, cell cultures, tissues, and organs) to be harvested from suitable donor animals, stored for prolonged periods under refrigerated, cryogenic, or near-freezing, and then transported and implanted into a site within the body of a selected recipient animal, all without significant loss of cellular viability, tissue integrity, and/or biochemical function of the stored biological sample.
摘要:
A debridement method, device and system or kit are effectively used to debride a lesion, particularly an osteolytic lesion resulting from a hip or knee arthroplasty. In the lesion treatment, an effective amount of a debridement fluid with suspended particulate abrasive is delivered to a lesion area within body tissue to debride the lesion; and the fluid is intermittently aspirated from the area.

摘要:
Disclosed are compositions and methods for the preservation, storage, and transport of living biological tissues, organs, and populations of isolated cells. In particular, the disclosed compositions and processes permit mammalian cells, tissues, and organs to be harvested from suitable donor animals, stored for prolonged periods, and transported to the site of recipient implantation, all without significant loss of cell viability, biological activity, and/or tissue integrity.
