Abstract: The present application relates to an implant system, preferably for the sacroiliac joint, comprising an implant body with at least two adjacent apertures, at least two screws and an insertion instrument assembly. Each screw comprises a screw head and a threaded elongated shaft. The at least two screws are rotatably engaged within said at least two apertures. The insertion instrument assembly includes a basis, a first holding means and at least one rotatable driving means configured for engagement with a drive of at least one of said at least two screws. The at least two screws or said insertion instrument assembly comprises transmission means such that a rotational movement of a first screw of said at least two screws is transferred to the at least one further screw.

Abstract: The application relates to a bone screw assembly for fixation into a bone, comprising a first screw element with a body including a threaded first end with a first external screw thread having a first handedness and a first lead length. The first screw element comprises an internal thread feature with a second handedness and a second lead length located within a bore within said body. The screw assembly includes a second screw element comprising a second external screw thread with the second handedness and the second lead length. Said second screw element is arranged within said bore and said second external screw thread is engaged with said internal thread feature. The second screw element is movable from a first implantation configuration where the second screw element is arranged completely within said bore and a second implantation configuration where the second screw element protrudes from said bore.

Abstract: The present application relates to a facet joint prosthesis comprising a first component having a first disc with a first outer face for engagement of a first bone. The first outer face has an opposed first inner face, which includes a first post connecting said first disc to a tongue. The facet joint prosthesis further comprises a second component having a second disc with a second outer surface for engagement with a second bone. The second outer surface has an opposed second inner face, which comprises a bridge located near the periphery of said second disc. Said bridge connects the second disc with a third disc. The third disc comprises a pocket. Insertion of said tongue into said pocket and rotation of said tongue relative to said pocket results in a locking of said tongue between said second disc and said third disc.

Abstract: The present inventions relates to an osteotomy implant for bridging an osteotomy opening or resection in a target bone in a substantially countersunk manner. The osteotomy implant comprises a proximal portion with at least one aperture for receiving at least one bone fixation element and a distal portion with at least one aperture for receiving at least one bone fixation element. At least one middle strut portion connects said proximal portion with said distal portion. Said at least one middle strut portion has a width which is equal to or smaller than a thickness of said at least one middle strut portion.
