    Abstract: A knee-joint endoprosthesis includes a tibia component for proximal fixation to a tibia. The tibia component has a form-fitting section arranged on an upper face. The endoprosthesis also has a meniscus component configured to articulate with a femoral joint component. The meniscus component has a complementary form-fitting section arranged on a lower face. The tibia component and the meniscus component are joined together by a form-fitting connection formed between the form-fitting section and the complementary form-fitting section. At least one reinforcement element is inserted into the meniscus component and is configured to mechanically reinforce the form-fitting joint connection. The reinforcing element is arranged in the region of the complementary form-fitting section.

    Abstract: An expandable cage which is placed between the vertebrae, is moveable when preferred, closes the opening between the vertebrae upon being moved, and hence can be integrated in any intervertebral opening. The expandable cage has at least one body with at least one space and at least one rib; at least one moveable part which is located inside the body and has at least one bearing area, at least one base, and at least one nail, the moveable part being moved unilaterally by the balloon; at least one balloon which applies the force required to be applied on the base of the moveable part for ensuring unilateral movement of the moveable part; at least one hole through which the balloon can pass; and at least one compression element which supplies the required fluid to the balloon.
