    摘要: A radiolucent intervertebral prosthesis is implanted in an environment that has been prepared in a manner which enhances radiopacity of the prosthesis and/or the environment. A liquid, powder, or other fluid radiopaque (RO) material, such as iohexol, is introduced into an implantation site, either by directly introducing the material into the site and/or by applying the material to a surface of the implant. The presence of the RO material in the implantation site provides contrast with the material of radiolucent prosthesis while the implantation site is being radiographically imaged, e.g. during fluoroscopic visualization while the prosthesis is being implanted. During implantation, the RO material helps the physician view and manipulate the implant, and after the implantation is complete, the RO material will be resorbed or otherwise lost from the implantation site so that the area returns to a radiolucent condition to facilitate subsequent radiographic imaging when needed.

    摘要: Intervertebral fusion implant cages (10) and methods of fabrication are described herein. The cages (10) may be used to assist with fusing together adjacent vertebrae when a displaced or damaged spinal disc is surgically removed. The cages include windows that allow the bone graft to grow from one vertebra through the cage and into the adjacent vertebra (e.g., cervical vertebrae). The cages include a number of features which enhance its performance during use.

    摘要: An assembly for replacing a vertebral disc. The assembly includes an implant and a device for positioning the implant between two adjacent vertebrae. The implant includes a body having an internal compartment enclosed by an outer wall, and a skeleton coupled to the body. The device includes a cannula, a container coupled to the cannula, the container having a first end and a second end, a plunger threadingly coupled to the cannula and to the first end of the container, and a conduit coupled to the second end of the container and in fluid communication with the body of the implant. The implant is positioned within the cannula in an undeployed state and is deployed within a vertebral disc to receive a biological fluid in a second state.

    摘要: A low friction resurfacing implant system including a first implant component (20) having a first bearing surface (26) and a first engagement surface (24). The first engagement surface is located opposite the first bearing surface. The first implant component has a leading edge and a trailing edge. The first implant component includes teeth (22) that extend from the first engagement surface. The teeth are arranged in a plurality of rows. The teeth in adjacent rows are offset from each other.
