Abstract: A device for covering and/or reconstructing a bone defect site includes a cap (molded shell, rigid shell, molded body) having a rim and at least one fixing device for fixing the cap on a bone. The cap has a dimensionally stable (rigid) nature. A wall of the cap facing the bone defect or a wall of the cap facing away from the bone defect corresponds to the shape of the regenerated bone, at least one positioning device being located on the rim of the cap. A method produces a cap for a covering device for a bone defect site.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing a cap (4) which has at least one nominal breaking point (16) of a covering device for a bone defect site (2) and a device (1) for covering and/or reconstructing a bone defect site (2) are proposed, wherein through comparing a first data set which represents the affected bone defect site (2) in the actual condition with a second data set which represents the nominal condition of a regenerated bone at the bone defect site (2), wherein the second data set has been calculated or recorded at a time at which the bone at the site now to be regenerated was still a healthy bone (18) it is made possible that the regenerated bone produced through the regeneration of the bone defect point (2) has a shape which corresponds to the shape the bone had at the site to be regenerated when it was still healthy.
Abstract: A device for covering and/or reconstructing a bone defect site and a method for producing a cap of a covering device for a bone defect site, wherein the device for covering and/or reconstructing a bone defect site consists of a cap (moulded shell, rigid shell, shaped body) and of at least one fixing means for fixing the cap on a bone. The cap is distinguished by having a dimensionally stable (rigid) nature, and a wall of the cap directed towards the bone defect or a wall of the cap directed away from the bone defect corresponds to the shape of the regenerated bone.
