  • Patent number: 12076251
    Abstract: Bone implants, including methods of use and assembly. The bone implants, which are optionally composite implants, generally include a distal anchoring region and a growth region that is proximal to the distal anchoring region. The distal anchoring region can have one or more distal surface features that adapt the distal anchoring region for anchoring into iliac bone. The growth region can have one or more growth features that adapt the growth region to facilitate at least one of bony on-growth, in-growth, or through-growth. The implants may be positioned along a posterior sacral alar-iliac (“SAI”) trajectory. The implants may be coupled to one or more bone stabilizing constructs, such as rod elements thereof.

  • Publication number: 20020198859
    Abstract: A system and method for providing web links based on the content of text to thereby create a web site with appropriate web links (hot links) imbedded in the web site. An application program reviews the text of the web site, preferably during the process of creating HTML code and determines and displays possible hot links which can be embedded into the application for an individual such as the web site creator to determine whether or not to include a hot link as suggested by the application. Several different hot links may be determined which are appropriate and one or more may be inserted into the application. Links are created based on capitalization, a corporation-indicating word and/or trademark or trade name indication, either alone or based on historical information of past web site links or text for which no web site was used.
