  • Publication number: 20180360508
    Abstract: A calcaneum translation plate (1) characterised in that it comprises two end portions, i.e. a proximal anchoring portion (2) and a distal fixing portion (3), oriented in opposing directions and arranged in spaced parallel planes (P-P, P?-P?), said proximal and distal portions connecting to an intermediate portion (4) having a square general profile and comprising two perpendicular bearing surfaces, the proximal anchoring portion extending from one (5) of said surfaces and perpendicular thereto, whereas the distal fixing portion extends in the extension of the other bearing surface (6).

  • Patent number: 10149706
    Abstract: A device for coaptation of bone parts or bone fragments, including an integral plate obtained by molding whereof one portion (1) is made from a first biocompatible polymer including at least one or, preferably, a plurality of areas or inserts (2) provided with a through hole (3), the areas or inserts being made from a second biocompatible polymer which is more malleable than the first polymer, the areas or inserts having mechanical properties allowing a self-tapping of the inner surface of the holes, via screws that can be used for securing the plate to bone tissue, the support portion and the areas or inserts having a partial molecular bond between them.

  • Patent number: 9907666
    Abstract: A scapholunate stabilisation implant includes a central part having an elastic deformation capacity enabling the traction movements of the implant, and two end parts having an elastic deformation capacity enabling the torsional movements of the implant, the end parts being provided with at least one hole through which the fixing screw is passed, the central part and the end parts being connected by rods that can withstand the torsional deformations of the implant.

  • Publication number: 20170325861
    Abstract: The present application relates to a coaptation plate comprising a core and an overmould, the core comprising at least one window which is designed to at least partially extend over a fracture which separates a first portion of the osseous tissue from a second, the window being positioned between two openings through which a fastening screw passes, wherein one of said openings lies at least partially within a proximal portion of the core and the other opening lies at least partially within a distal portion of the core, the overmould enclosing the core and forming at least one upper layer and one lower layer on either side of the core, the window defining polymer material links that pass through the core and connect the upper layer and the lower layer, thus ensuring that the overmould is anchored in the core.

  • Publication number: 20160074079
    Abstract: An extreme movement osteotomy device includes an attachment plate suitable for being locked to the cortical substance of the bone to be treated, having a first proximal portion suitable for being attached to the inner cortical substance of the metatarsal diaphysis of the bone, a distal portion suitable for being attached to the outer cortical substance, next to the epiphysis of the metatarsus, and a central portion connecting the proximal and distal portions, each one of the proximal and distal portions of the plate being provided with at least one hole and orthopaedic screws to pass therethrough; and a proximal intramedullary support system having a shank with a foam tip extending from the end of the proximal portion of the plate.

  • Patent number: 8834534
    Abstract: A scapholunate stabilization graft is made up of an oblong plate, made of a material having a resilient deformation capability. The ends of the plate are provided with at least one hole enabling an attachment screw to pass therethrough, and the central portion of which has an opening defined by two opposite sides. A spring connects two remote points of said sides, said spring being placed along the diagonal within said opening.
