Patent number: 12016604Abstract: An example method is provided for maintaining stability to an injury defined by a separation of two bones (e.g., the tibia and fibula), the separation being an injured distance greater than a pre-injury distance between the two bones in a first human patient. The method may include delivering a first apparatus for approximation of the two bones in the first human patient comprising the injury, the first apparatus including a flexible segment disposed between a first anchor and a second anchor. The method may further include maintaining, by the first apparatus, a restored distance between the two bones in the first human patient after a repetitive dynamic loading, the restored distance approximately equal to the pre-injury distance.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2022Date of Patent: June 25, 2024Assignee: DePuy Synthes Products, Inc.Inventors: Firas Souleiman, Ivan Zderic, Torsten Pastor, Dominic Gehweiler, Boyko Gueorguiev-Rüegg, Michael Swords, Tim Schepers, Matthew Tomlinson, Charles Horrell, Nicholas Mourlas, Jon Thompson, Todd Kent, Jessica Galie
