    摘要: Apparatus for removing a dental periapical lesion at an apex of a root canal in a tooth, includes: an ablating device sized and constructed for (a) introduction through a cavity in the tooth into the root canal; (b) movement therethrough to protrude through the apex into contact with the dental periapical lesion; and (c) rotation while in contact with the dental periapical lesion in order to remove same by ablation. In some described embodiments, the ablating device includes a sleeve and a filament moveable therein to define a protruding curved end to be brought into contact with the dental periapical lesion for ablation thereof by rotation of the filament. In another described embodiment, the ablating device includes a sleeve and a filament within the sleeve and secured at one end to one end of the sleeve, the sleeve being formed with a plurality of slits such that, displacing the sleeve towards its secured end, produces outwardly-bowed surfaces along the slits effective to ablate the dental periapical lesion tissues upon rotation of the sleeve.

    摘要: The invention provides a tendon or ligament prosthesis having an undeployed configuration and a deployed configuration. The prosthesis has a resistance to tension in the undeployed configuration that is less than its resistance to tension in the deployed configuration. In the deployed configuration, the prosthesis is capable of twisting and bending. In one embodiment, the prosthesis has a meshwork of filaments woven, knitted or braided into a slender cylinder. In this embodiment, the prosthesis attains the deployed configuration by stretching the prosthesis from its undeployed configuration. The prosthesis may be used, for example, to replace an anterior or posterior cruciate ligament or to treat acromioclavicular joint separation, a rotator cuff tear, lateral collateral ligament tears, medial collateral ligament tears, or medial patello-femoral ligament tears. The invention also provides a method for replacing a tendon or ligament using the prosthesis of the invention.
