  • Patent number: 4338925
    Abstract: A penetrating bone cement, for example a cement having a viscosity at 68.degree. to 70.degree. F. of less than 5000 poise and, preferably, less than 2000 poise up to the fifth or sixth minute after the cement is mixed, is injected under high pressure such that the bone cement penetrates the trabeculae of the bone to provide an improved fixation interface between the bone cement and bone. The bone cement is placed within a reinforced, front loading cartridge having a plunger at one end thereof and a nozzle at the other end thereof.The end of the cartridge having the plunger engages a high pressure injection gun including a housing axially supporting a rod with respect to the cartridge. Carried on the rod is a forward engaging member cooperating with a lever pivoted to the housing. Manual rotation of the lever engages the forward engaging member and forces the rod forward to force the plunger into the cartridge.
