  • Patent number: 10675154
    Abstract: The present invention refers to an osteochondral local prosthetic insert for partial humeral joint reconstitution by reconstitution of the bone anatomical sphericity to treat bone lesions, in particular Hill-Sachs lesions. The local osteochondral prosthetic insert is a rigid monolithic body having a truncated-cone shape, the proximal diameter greater than the distal diameter, the proximal end of convex shape and rounded at the corners, and a tapered distal end. The lateral surface of the insert shows in the middle-distal part a non-return shaping that allows the maintenance of the position defined in the surgical operation. The proximal end is convex in order to better adapt to the local bone sphericity and has recesses for the manipulation and positioning through dedicated tools.
