Abstract: An assembly including an implantable part designed to be fastened to at least one bone or bone portions to be joined and at least one screw for fastening the implantable part to the at least one bone or bone portions. The implantable part includes at least one tapped hole and the screw includes a head designed to be engaged in the tapped hole. The tapped hole is cylindrical and includes at least one radial notch emerging in a surface of the implantable part through which the screw is designed to be engaged in the tapped hole. The radial notch produces an interruption in the tapping included by the tapped hole. The head of the screw is conical, with an apical angle of between 15 and 25°.

Abstract: The implant includes two side walls resting against the vertebral end-plates and an intermediate wall joining the supporting walls. The implant can be deformed for insertion between the vertebrae to be treated to restore the attenuated mobility of the vertebrae, and includes mounting elements mounting on the vertebrae. The side walls have a curved shape, whose convexity is oriented towards the outside of the implant; the intermediate wall has a curved shape, whose convexity is oriented towards the outside of the implant such that it does not form any pronounced angles with the supporting side walls. The supporting side walls and the intermediate wall, have a partially oval shape; and the mounting elements are configured such that the implant can be mounted on the vertebrae.

Abstract: This method comprises the use of a repair equipment including a humeral rod (2) intended to be placed in the medullary cavity of the humerus, comprising at least one hole (6) for receiving a thread (11) for repositioning the tuberosities (101, 102) and for maintaining the latter with respect to the rest of the bone. Said hole (6) is formed in the metaphyseal portion of the humeral rod (2), in the anteroposterior direction thereof; and the repair equipment further comprises a so-called “guying” subassembly (3), to maintain the tuberosities (101, 102) when they re-installed, two second so-called “traction” subassemblies (4), for pulling of the tuberosities (101, 102) one toward the other, and two so-called third “pressing” subassemblies (5), for tackling the tuberosities (101, 102); each of these sub-assemblies comprises a needle and thread (11) connected to this needle, this thread (11) forming a loop.

Abstract: This surgical clip (1), comprises, on at least one lateral arm (3), several successive projecting portions (4), particularly of a tapered shape, forming series of shoulders (5) suitable for opposing, after insertion, the extraction of said lateral arm (3) from the bone. According to the invention, at least one projecting portion (4) of said lateral arm (3) comprises at least one groove (6) opening onto the shoulder (5) formed by said portion (4), said groove (6) and said shoulder (5) thus delimiting a pointed and sharp material zone (7), suitable for hollowing the bone when, after the intermediate arm (2) of the clip has been cut, said lateral arm (3) is driven in rotation.

Abstract: The invention relates to equipment for repairing biological tissue, such as a tendon or a ligament and, in particular, the calcanean tendon. The inventive equipment comprises a link (3) and elements (5) which are used to stop the link (3) in relation to the fragments of tissue to be repaired. According to the invention: (i) one of the aforementioned stop elements comprises a bone screw (2) which can be implanted in a bone surrounding the tissue to be repaired, for example in the calcaneum in order to repair the calcanean tendon; (ii) the above-mentioned link (3) forms a tubular part (6) in which one part of the screw (2) can be tightly inserted along with at least two cords (4) which can be inserted through the fragments of the biological tissue to be repaired, for example the two fragments of a broken calcanean tendon; and (iii) other stop elements comprise at least two stop buttons (5).

Abstract: The invention relates to an osteosynthesis plate for the osteosynthesis of small neighbouring bones. The inventive osteosynthesis plate (1) is dimensioned such that it can be positioned above the bones to be treated without resting on the larger neighbouring bones. According to the invention, the osteosynthesis plate comprises lateral holes (16) for the insertion of screws (6) which are used to fix same to the bones (2 to 5). The plate is characterised in that: (i) it comprises a flat face (10) which is intended to come into contact with the bones to be treated; and (ii) it comprises holes (16) for receiving screws (6), which have axes that are inclined in relation to the aforementioned flat face (10) and which are designed such that the inserted screws diverge towards the outside of the plate (1).
