  • Patent number: 10660740
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an implantable fastening device for securing a graft to at least one bone of a joint, comprising a hollow tubular elongate textile element defining an inside volume and including a first free end and a second free end; and a bearing element having at least two through openings. Said elongate element has an initial outside diameter d0 (mm) and includes an admission orifice leading into its inside volume and an exit orifice going from its inside volume that are spaced apart by an initial distance m0 (mm) defining a sleeve, the first end of said elongate element being passed into the sleeve so as to form a first loop with at least a portion thereof being passed through at least two through openings of said bearing element. The second free end of said elongate element forms a second loop passing through a through opening of said bearing element.

  • Publication number: 20200078055
    Abstract: The present invention concerns an accessory for tensioning an elongate element for attaching an implant to a bone element, comprising a rod having proximal and distal ends and a longitudinal axis L, the distal end of said rod being provided with a bearing device for bearing on the implant. The accessory further comprises a device for tensioning the elongate element, comprising a drum mounted so as to be able to rotate about an axis T, transverse to the axis L, arranged at the proximal end of the rod, the drum comprising a holding portion suitable for cooperating with the elongate element. The tensioning device comprises a device for rotating the drum about the axis T, allowing the elongate element to be tensioned by winding the elongate element around the drum.

  • Publication number: 20160166368
    Abstract: The invention provides an implantable prosthesis (100) comprising: an adhesive portion (102) that is capable of forming adhesions with organic tissues, the adhesive portion presenting a first peripheral edge (102a) and; a non-adhesive portion (104) that inhibits the formation of adhesions with tissues, that is secured to the adhesive portion, and that presents a second peripheral edge (104a), the first peripheral edge (102a) being set back from the second peripheral edge (104a) so as to uncover the non-adhesive portion, in part, defining, between the first peripheral edge and the second peripheral edge, a non-adhesive peripheral band (106) that surrounds the adhesive portion (102); the adhesive portion (102) has a central portion, and presents the shape of a star that includes a plurality of branches (108) that extend from the central portion, the adhesive portion having a plurality of notches (109) that are situated between the branches.

  • Patent number: 9168118
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an implantable attachment device comprising an elongate element which is tubular flexible and hollow delimiting an internal volume comprising a tightening loop, having a first circumference in the inactive position, formed by the portion of said tubular element in said internal volume between intake and outlet openings distant by a length. The device comprises blocking means of said portion in the internal volume of said elongate element, which can be deactivated under the effect of manual traction exerted on the first or second end of said elongate element, said traction enabling the sliding of said elongate element between said orifices and correlatively the formation of the tightening loop having a second circumference in the active position, the second circumference being less than the first circumference.
