Abstract: The invention relates to an activation tool (3) comprising in particular:



a coupling device (17) interposed between a first shaft (9) and a second shaft (15), which is configured to couple the first shaft (9) and the second shaft (15) in a first mode, referred to as the activation mode, when the first shaft (9) and the second shaft (15) exhibit the same rotational speed, and is configured to angularly decouple the first shaft (9) and the second shaft (15) in a second mode, referred to as the failure mode, when a rotational speed of the second shaft (15) is higher than the rotational speed of the first shaft (9),
means (19) for detecting the switch from the first mode to the second mode.




The invention also relates to a distraction assembly (1) having an activation tool (3) of the above-mentioned type, and a plate distractor (5).

Abstract: A cannulated headless compression screw is provided with an attachment mechanism that enables coupling various attachments to the headless compression screw. The headless compression screw includes a screw thread on its exterior that is adapted to effect compression between two bone fragments. For instance, the exterior screw thread may have a variable pitch formed to effect such compression. The interior of the headless compression screw's trailing end includes an interface that is adapted to engage with a driving instrument. A surgeon may drive the headless compression screw into bone via the driving instrument and then access the attachment mechanism to couple an attachment to the headless compression screw.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A method for performing a cranioplasty includes the steps of prefabricating a sonolucent craniofacial implant based upon information generated by preoperative scans, creating a cranial, craniofacial, and/or facial defect, and attaching the craniofacial implant to the cranial, craniofacial, and/or facial defect. The craniofacial implant is composed of a material that is sonolucent and exhibits attenuation of less than 6 dB/cm.

Abstract: A fixation device for providing rotation stability to a femoral neck fracture. The device includes a bone plate having at least one opening, a compression screw housing extendable through the opening of the bone plate, a compression screw being at least partially disposed within the bore of the housing and selectively moveable through the bore, and a collapsible and expandable anchoring member coupled to the compression screw. The anchoring member is configured to transition between a collapsed condition and an expanded condition upon advancement of the anchoring member from the compression screw housing to rotationally stabilize the compression screw within a femur.

Abstract: A bone screw may be insertable into a bone. The bone screw may have a distal member with bone-engaging threads, a proximal member configured to slidably engage the distal member, and a tension member with a proximal end coupled to the proximal member, and a distal end coupled to the distal member such that, in response to motion of the distal member away from the proximal member, the tension member elongates and urges the distal member to move toward the proximal member. The tension member may be configured such that, at a minimum length of the bone screw, the tension member is pre-stretched so that the tension member is under tension to urge the bone screw to shorten. The bone screw may be inserted in the pre-stretched state. A pre-stretch driver may be used to tension the bone screw prior to or during insertion.

Abstract: An implant for repairing a joint between a first bone and a second bone includes a first section constructed of a substantially rigid material and a graft constructed of soft tissue having a first end and a second end. The first section has a first end surface configured for positioning against the first bone. The graft is configured for stabilizing the first section relative to the first bone. A first fastener is configured for mounting to the graft and the first section to anchor the graft to the first section. A second fastener is configured for mounting to the graft and the first bone to anchor the graft to the first bone.
