  • Publication number: 20180360508
    Abstract: A calcaneum translation plate (1) characterised in that it comprises two end portions, i.e. a proximal anchoring portion (2) and a distal fixing portion (3), oriented in opposing directions and arranged in spaced parallel planes (P-P, P?-P?), said proximal and distal portions connecting to an intermediate portion (4) having a square general profile and comprising two perpendicular bearing surfaces, the proximal anchoring portion extending from one (5) of said surfaces and perpendicular thereto, whereas the distal fixing portion extends in the extension of the other bearing surface (6).

  • Publication number: 20180296260
    Abstract: An extreme movement osteotomy device includes an attachment plate suitable for being locked to the cortical substance of the bone to be treated, having a first proximal portion suitable for being attached to the inner cortical substance of the metatarsal diaphysis of the bone, a distal portion suitable for being attached to the outer cortical substance, next to the epiphysis of the metatarsus, and a central portion connecting the proximal and distal portions, each one of the proximal and distal portions of the plate being provided with at least one hole and orthopaedic screws to pass therethrough; and a proximal intramedullary support system having a shank with a foam tip extending from the end of the proximal portion of the plate.

  • Patent number: 6620200
    Abstract: An acetubular implant includes a cup for receiving an insert freely articulated in the cup, equipped with iliac expansions (8) and a plugging element; the cup consists of a hemispherical part extended by a cylindrical part whereto are attached the iliac expansions. The cylindrical part extends over substantially a half circumference of an equatorial edge of the hemispherical part and is defined by a plane (R) inclined on the equatorial plane. Part of the outer surface of the cup (2) is covered with a macrostructure (24) defining a set of raised parts with a series of equatorial and meridian grooves of predetermined shape such that the macrostructure is neither too rough nor too smooth.
