| 20080281330 | Medical Securing Member Placement System - PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a perforating pin and equipment for perforation with which an accurate piercing region and piercing direction of a guiding pin can be easily specified at the neck of the femur or its surroundings and an advancing situation of the perforating pin can be confirmed when the perforating pin is pierced. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090143824 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USING POLYAXIAL PLATES - Embodiments of the present invention provide a bone fixation assembly that can provide polyaxial fixation. The polyaxial fixation may be provided by fins that protrude from an opening in a bone plate or fins that protrude from a fastener head. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20090312803 | Bone Plate and Bone Plate Assemblies Including Polyaxial Fasteners - A system for fixation of bone, including a bone plate with an opening comprising threads made of a first material and a fastener with a head at least partially comprising a polymeric material that is softer than the first material. In some embodiments, when the fastener is inserted into the first opening, the threads of the first opening form threads in the polymeric material on the head of the fastener and secure the fastener in place at one of a plurality of possible angles within the first opening. The first opening additionally accepts a fastener with a substantially spherical head for compression of a fracture, or a fastener with a threaded head that engages with the threads of the threaded opening. In some embodiments the first opening includes a substantially frustoconical-shaped top portion. In other embodiments there may be a second opening that is either non-threaded or comprises a plurality of protruding fins. | 12-17-2009 |
