Abstract: A bone graft substitute which combines substantially the high mechanical stability of spherical porous granules without the limitation of reduced intergranular space, and a method for manufacturing the bone graft substitute. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the surface of the granules comprises indentations that increases the porosity within the implanted mass significantly and thus provides more space between the granules for tissue ingrowth. The indentations on the granules cause them to have an irregular shape and thus an increase in the intergranular space is achieved, while mechanical stability is maintained. An exemplary method according to the invention includes the steps of manufacturing the granules; mixing the granules with a porogen; pressing the porogen into the surface of at least a portion of the granules; and removing the porogen from the implant mass to form the indentations in the surface where the porogen was pressed into the granules.

Abstract: A bone graft substitute which combines substantially the high mechanical stability of spherical porous granules without the limitation of reduced intergranular space. The granules have a high porosity whilst maintaining high stability, and can be pushed into a defect without risking significant breakage of the granules and, simultaneously, bone cells can grow into the space between the granules. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the surface of the granules comprises indentations, when viewed from the exterior of the granules. An indentation increases the porosity within the implanted mass significantly and thus provides more space between the granules for tissue ingrowth. Due to the indentations on the granules, the granules have an irregular shape and thus an increase in the intergranular space is achieved, while mechanical stability is maintained. A biocompatible polymer, such as a polypeptide, is disposed about at least some of the granules to form a coating thereon.

Abstract: Bioactive ceramic particles (such as bioglass) that are customized with ions to enhance tissue healing. The ions may include one or more of Magnesium, Copper, Cobalt, Silver, Aluminum, Iron, Manganese, Zinc, Calcium, Lithium, Gallium, Strontium and/or other Group 5 based ions. Medical applications for use of the customized bioglass particles include wound (dermis) repair, orthopedics (bone), spine, tendon, ligaments, cartilage, neurologic and dental. Embodiments of the customized bioglass particles contain multiple layers, each layer having a different composition. In some embodiments, the ions in each layer work in conjunction with a biologic process. Also disclosed are methods for forming the customized bioglass particles.

Abstract: An implant for the repair of bone and cartilage that includes a cell conductive zone that contains biopolymeric fibers and an osteoconductive zone that contains biopolymeric fibers and calcium-containing mineral particles. The biopolymeric fibers from one zone overlap with the fibers in the other zone forming a stable physical and mechanical integration of the two zones, thus conferring in vivo stability to the implant.

Abstract: A method for producing a collagen meniscus implant by obtaining a freshly excised non-human meniscus, rinsing it in an aqueous solution, drying the rinsed meniscus, shaping it to approximate in dimension an average-sized human meniscus, extracting non-collagenous material from the shaped meniscus, cross-linking, and sterilizing it, yielding a collagen meniscus implant containing at least 90% by weight of type I collagen, less than 0.5% by weight of native glycosaminoglycan, and less than 600 ppm DNA. Also disclosed is a collagen meniscus implant prepared by the above method. Further provided is a biocompatible and bioresorbable porous implant for meniscus repair. The implant includes a three-dimensional network of collagen fibers oriented in a direction approximating the collagen fiber orientation of a human meniscus. The implant has a size and a contour substantially equivalent to a human meniscus, and has a chemical composition similar to the above-described collagen meniscus implant.

Abstract: A density gradient biopolymeric matrix implant is disclosed. The implant includes a first homogeneous matrix layer and a second homogeneous matrix layer having a density different from that of the first homogeneous matrix layer. Biopolymeric fibers at the surface of the first homogeneous matrix layer are physically in contact with and cross-linked to the biopolymeric fibers at the surface of the second homogeneous matrix layer. Also disclosed is a three-dimensional density gradient biopolymeric matrix implant that includes a first homogeneous matrix surrounding a second homogeneous matrix having a different density. Biopolymeric fibers at an inner surface of the first homogeneous matrix are physically in contact with and cross-linked to biopolymeric fibers at an outer surface of the second homogeneous matrix. Furthermore, methods for preparing the density gradient biopolymeric matrix implant and the three-dimensional density gradient biopolymeric matrix implant are provided.
