  • Publication number: 20090304893
    Abstract: Implant removal tool (1) which allows removing an implant (5) from a patient's bone (6). The implant removal tool (1) comprises a head (2), to which a torque-providing system is attached, and a threaded body (4) preferably with a decreasing diameter. The threaded body (4) preferably has a thread to the left and is intended to be threaded into the hole (7) of the implant (5). The extraction of the implant (5) is relatively simple to carry out, removing the implant (5) in an almost clean manner and leaving a very small cavity (13) in the patient's bone (6). Therefore, the implant removal tool (1) according to the invention makes the removal of an implant (5) a far less traumatic procedure for the patient.
