| 20090149966 | TRANSCUTANEOUS PROSTHESIS - A transcutaneous prosthesis includes a first component configured for attachment to a bone, the first component including flutes or grooves on a surface thereof for deterring rotation of the prosthesis within a bone; a second component adapted for location between the bone and the skin, the second component having a surface treatment for stimulation of fibroblastic cell proliferation and attachment of epithelial cells; and a third component adapted for location to extend from the skin surface and is adapted to extend directly from the skin surface in use, the third component having a coating of a non-stick material on an outer surface thereof, the coating having a surface energy that is lower than a surface energy of the first and second components and which is low enough to deter bacterial adhesion. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20100331996 | METHOD OF INSTALLING A TRANSCUTANEOUS PROSTHESIS - A method of installing a transcutaneous prosthesis which includes a first component, a second component adapted for location between the bone and the skin, the second component having a surface treatment for stimulation of fibroblastic cell proliferation and attachment of epithelial cells and a third component adapted for location to extend from the skin surface and the third component having an outer surface. The outer surface of the third component has a surface energy that is lower than a surface energy of at least the first component and which is low enough to deter bacterial adhesion. The method includes attaching the first component to a bone such that a transition from the second component to the third component is essentially at the surface of the skin and the third component extends from the skin surface when the first component is attached to a bone | 12-30-2010 |

| 20100082103 | TENDON-INTEGRATED PROSTHESIS - A transcutaneous prosthetic device having at least one soft tissue fixture adapted to be fixed to the musculo-tendinous soft tissues of a residual limb, an anchor for an external prosthesis that is fixedly coupled, directly or indirectly, to the bone of the residual limb and at least one transmission means, at least part of the transmission means being housed within a body. The transmission means allowing transmission of one or more signals between the soft tissue fixture and an external prosthesis. The transmission means may comprises a connecting means connecting the soft tissue fixture and an external prosthesis. The connecting means may comprise a mechanical or an electrical connector. The connecting means may comprise a sealed connection within the transcutaneous component, to provide an effective barrier between the internal and external environments. | 04-01-2010 |
