  • Patent number: 9585706
    Abstract: A bone plate system is provided for joining together bone parts of a surgical patient. The system includes an elongated bone plate defining a longitudinal axis and having a first portion containing a first slot; a second portion containing a second slot; and a third portion containing a threaded hole. First and second compressing screws are provided for passage through the first and second slots and engagement into first and second respective bone parts. The compressing screws are configured to forcefully interact with the slots, and to urge the bone parts towards one another. A locking screw is provided for passage through the threaded hole and engagement into a third bone part.

  • Patent number: 8535355
    Abstract: A bone plate system for joining together adjacent bone parts of a surgical patient includes a bone plate having a first slot defining a first centerline axis, a second slot defining a second centerline axis, and a third slot defining a third centerline axis. The first, second and third slots are disposed in a triangular arrangement and simultaneously positionable over each of three adjacent bone parts. Each of a first compressing screw, a second compressing screw and a third compressing screw has a threaded shank for passage through the first, second and third slots, respectively, and engagement into the underlying bone part.

  • Patent number: 8348980
    Abstract: A method for joining together a first, a second and a third bone part of a surgical patient includes obtaining a bone plate having a first, a second and a third portion arranged along a longitudinal axis. The first portion contains a first slot for receiving a first compressing screw. The second portion is adjacent to the first portion and contains a second slot for receiving a second compressing screw. The third portion is adjacent to the second portion and contains a threaded hole for receiving a locking screw. The method further includes positioning the first, second and third portions over the first, second and third bone parts. The method further includes inserting the locking screw into the threaded hole and into the third bone part, inserting the second compressing screw into the second slot and into the second bone part, and inserting the first compressing screw into the first slot and into the first bone part, thereby urging the first, second and third bone parts together.

  • Publication number: 20090138096
    Abstract: A foot/ankle implant anatomically-shaped for implantation between two bone portions of the foot or ankle to correct associated deformities. The foot/ankle implant has a peripheral wall surrounding a central bore therethrough and defining an annular cross-section. The wall is constructed from a composite material that includes a ceramic component and a polymer component. The ceramic component is gradually resorbed after implantation, and the polymeric component gradually degrades after implantation.

  • Publication number: 20080015590
    Abstract: An implant having alignment indicia is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the implant is generally elongated and comprises a first end portion and a second end portion with a plurality of fixation holes formed therein. The first end portion is configured for attachment to a bone on a first side of an anatomical feature found in the patient's body. The second end portion is configured for attachment to a bone on a second side of the anatomical feature. The implant further comprises a contoured perimeter. Alignment indicia are formed in the perimeter between the first end portion and the second end portion. The alignment indicia are configured to indicate proper positioning of the bone plate on the at least one bone with respect to the anatomical feature. The alignment indicia may comprise, for example, protrusions or indentations formed in the perimeter of the bone plate.
