Abstract: A TPLO plate configured to accommodate flexible strands (flexible loops) attached to tissue to be attached to bone. The TPLO plate has one or more suture eyelets, to allow the user (surgeon) to pass a flexible strand through the eyelets and attach/reattach the tissue to the plate at the anatomical location, and to improve the rotational stability of the joint or bone. The eyelets may have various shapes, forms and configurations and may be provided on or within a surface of the TPLO bone plate in any number, depending on the characteristics of the fractured bone or bone segments, or of the plate design. The eyelets preferably receive one or more flexible strands.

Abstract: A femoral implant for total hip replacement includes a cage screw, a femoral head and a base plate provided between the cage screw and the femoral head, to minimize the stress transferred from the femoral head to the bone. The femoral implant may optionally include devices for lateral fixation (for example, internal and/or external screws for lateral fixation) and a device for minimizing micro-motion that is integral to, and extends from, the cage screw.

Abstract: A system and method for determining laxity in an anatomical joint. The system includes a force sensor that measures a force applied to an appendage that is coupled to a joint and a position sensor that determines the amount of movement of the appendage when the force is applied to the appendage. The system also includes a system controller that is connected to both the force sensor and the position sensor and allows communications between the sensors.

Abstract: A technique and reconstruction system for ligament repair by determining the exact length of the graft to be secured within a first tunnel or socket (for example, a tibial tunnel) and a second tunnel or socket (for example, a femoral tunnel) for improved graft fixation. The exact length of the graft (soft tissue graft or BTB graft, for example) is determined with a measuring device, by measuring the length of a first socket in a first bone region (for example, a tibial socket), the length of a second socket in a second bone region (for example, a femoral socket), and the length of the intraarticular joint space between the two sockets in the two bone regions (for example, tibia and femur). The measuring device may consist of at least one flexible member (for example, suture) with at least one fixation device attached to the flexible member, the fixation device being either a sliding knot, a washer or a button.
