| 20120116512 | INTERVERTEBRAL DISK PROSTHESIS NOTABLY FOR CERVICAL VERTEBRAE - A prosthesis comprises having two portions independent of each other, a first portion and a second portion, at least one of which includes an articular surface, said first portion and said second portion each comprising a circular seat delimited by an arched wall. An element of the prosthesis is an O-ring in an elastically deformable material, and one of said seats is dimensioned to receive a radially outer portion of this ring while the other seat is dimensioned to receive a radially inner portion of this ring. | 05-10-2012 |
| 20110172769 | INTERVERTEBRAL IMPLANT INTENDED TO ALLOW IMMOBILIZATION OF ONE VERTEBRA IN RELATION TO ANOTHER - An implant that allows immobilization of one vertebra in relation to another, having two lateral walls essentially parallel one with respect to the other and having a length, and at least one transverse wall connecting these lateral walls one to the other, at least one of these lateral walls having, on its side facing the side opposite the other lateral wall, slide prevention reliefs. The invention, the implant has, in a direction perpendicular to the length of the lateral walls, a dimension such that its two lateral walls are capable of coming into the immediate vicinity of the unci of the underlying vertebrae, the slide prevention reliefs of each of lateral wall thus being able to bear against the internal surface of the uncus of the underlying vertebra adjacent this lateral wall. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20110118842 | VERTEBRAL OSTEOSYNTHESIS MATERIAL - A graft or an intervertebral piece or cage designed to be inserted between two vertebrae, and an implant in the form of a staple, having two lateral branches designed to be inserted into the plates of the respective vertebrae to be immobilized and a central branch connecting these two lateral branches to each other. At least one lateral branch has at least one mobile portion, movable between an introduction position, in which this mobile portion is located in the extension of the rest of this lateral branch, and an anchoring position, in which this mobile portion protrudes laterally in relation to the rest of the lateral branch, and the implant has movement means allowing the mobile portion to move between the introduction and anchoring positions. | 05-19-2011 |
| 20110112581 | VERTEBRAL OSTEOSYNTHESIS EQUIPMENT - Equipment at least one anchoring assembly including a hook integral with a body, this body being passed through by a hole and capable of being connected to connection means making it possible to connect the anchoring assembly to a connection bar for connecting a series of vertebrae. The anchoring assembly has a continuous flexible ligament able to be engaged in the hole and to form a loop allowing the engagement of the ligament around a structure of a vertebrae or mounted on a vertabrae, and has stop means making it possible to immobilize this ligament in relation to body. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110015679 | VERTEBRAL ARTHRODESIS EQUIPMENT - This equipment comprises at least one anchoring assembly including two antagonistic hooks connected to each other through a rod, a first of these hooks having a body crossed by a hole for letting through the rod and being able to be connected to connection means with which the anchoring assembly may be connected to another part of the equipment; said body has an aperture laid out substantially perpendicularly to the axis of said hole, communicating with this hole, and the anchoring assembly comprises has a tightening member which may be engaged into this aperture until it abuts against the rod engaged in the hole, and tightened in order to immobilize this rod in this hole. Said tightening member is directly connected to a part belonging to said connection means, which allows the mounting of the latter on the body of said first hook. | 01-20-2011 |
| 20100087822 | OSTEOSYNTHESIS CLIP AND INSERTION TOOL FOR USE WITH BONE TISSUE FRAGMENTS - An osteosynthesis clip for the cicatrization of bone tissue fragments and an insertion tool for inserting the clip are provided. The clip includes at least two engagement legs extending approximately parallel to one another and including respective distal bridging tips and respective proximal insertion tips to be inserted into the bone tissue fragments; and a connecting bridge coupled to the distal bridging tips of the two engagement legs, the connecting bridge including at least two elongated sections extending along side one another, the elongated sections extending along a non-linear trajectory to form a non-linear deformable region, such as a depression or a dome. | 04-08-2010 |
| 20100082030 | OSTEOSYNTHESIS CLIP AND INSERTION TOOL FOR USE WITH BONE TISSUE FRAGMENTS - An osteosynthesis clip for the cicatrization of bone tissue fragments. The clip includes at least two engagement legs extending approximately parallel to one another and including respective distal bridging tips and respective proximal insertion tips to be inserted into the bone tissue fragments; and a connecting bridge coupled to the distal bridging tips of the two engagement legs, the connecting bridge including at least two elongated sections extending along side one another, the elongated sections extending along a non-linear trajectory to form a non-linear deformable region, such as a depression or a dome. The engagement legs include helical screw surfaces to facilitate removal of the clip after the bone tissue fragments have fused. | 04-01-2010 |
