Abstract: Apparatus and method to induce osteogenesis in a bone region of a patient, by which at least one beam of ultrasounds is generated, focused and directed toward a bone region of a patient, such that the beam focus is matched with a specific point of the bone region. The ultrasound beam hits the bone region with an intensity and for a duration such to cause a hematoma and/or local inflammation and/or a series of micro-fractures in the target bone region, thereby activating a mechanism of osteogenesis.

Abstract: Hip joints are reinforced preventively by a device composed of a tubular element fashioned from biocompatible material, accommodated by a socket drilled in the femoral bone parallel and adjacent to an axis connecting the ball and the diaphysis, and two independent locking assemblies operating unidirectionally and in mutual opposition, likewise of biocompatible material, by which the tubular element can be deformed and manipulated in such a manner as to lodge stably in the surrounding bone tissue of the socket, establishing a load-bearing axis that functions as a bridge between the weaker axis and the main axis of the femur.
