Abstract: A bone implant including a wire mesh support frame having a plurality of interconnected wire members and at least two fastening points in the form of retention eyelets connected to the support frame by at least one of the wire members, and a biocompatible plate formed about the support frame, the plate having a bore associated with each of the retention eyelets.

Abstract: An implant for at least partially filling a bore hole in a bone includes a biocompatible plate and a support structure. The support structure has a ring-shaped inner support frame having an outer surface defining the outer diameter of the inner support frame and an inner surface, and an outer support frame having a plurality of fastening points adapted for attaching the implant to bone surrounding a bore hole in which the plate is inserted. The outer support frame is connected to and extends away from the outer surface of the inner support frame. A method of forming the implant is also provided.

Abstract: A bone implant including a wire mesh support frame (120A) having a plurality of interconnected wire members and at least two fastening points in the form of retention eyelets (140A) connected to the support frame by deformable retention arms (138A), and a biocompatible plate (112) formed about the support frame, the plate having at least two open cavities (116) therein, wherein each of the retention arms extends out of the plate from or into one of the open cavities. A method for correcting a bone defect in a patient, a mesh support frame for use in a bone implant, and a method of fabricating a bone implant are also provided.
