  • Patent number: 11154401
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for forming a patient-specific surgical implant based on mold system. The apparatus comprises a forming tool and a mold that may be generated using imaging and processing techniques and rapid prototyping methods. The mold apparatus includes at least two non-adjacent surface features for securing an implant forming material (such as a titanium mesh) during the forming process, enabling the implant forming material to be stretched beyond its elastic and thus permanently deformed with the correct patient-specific curvature. The implant may include one or more anatomic surface features for guidance and registration when transferring the implant to a patient.

  • Publication number: 20210022868
    Abstract: Formable mesh implants suitable for correcting bone implants are disclosed. A formable mesh may include a plurality of node plates that define a lattice, where connecting arms extend from each node plate. Each connecting arm associated with a given node plate connects with a plurality of adjacent connecting arms at a respective intermediate connection region, such that each connecting arm associated with the given node plate is connected to a different intermediate connection region, and such that neighboring node plates are indirectly connected through multiple connecting arms. At least a subset of the node plates may respectively include a screw-receiving aperture, and the intermediate connection regions may be absent of screw-receiving apertures. In another example embodiment, a formable mesh is disclosed in which each connecting arm of a given node plate connects with an adjacent node plate, where adjacent node plates are directly connected through at least two connecting arms.
