  • Publication number: 20200390563
    Abstract: The medical implant (1) according to the present invention comprises a first, generally elongate portion (20) extending along the longitudinal axis A, intended to be inserted into the first bone (P1) and comprising first attachment means (24), and a second, also elongate, portion (30) following another longitudinal axis B, intended to be inserted into the second bone (P2) and comprising second attachment means (34), wherein said first and second portions (20, 30) are connected together via a connecting bridge (40) which is centered about the orthonormal axes X, Y, Z of said implant (1), providing for at least one axial offset of the second portion (30) with respect to the first portion (20) such that the longitudinal axis B of the second portion (30) is positioned in at least one direction forming an angle (?) relative to the longitudinal axis A of the first portion (20) and is offset by at least a certain distance along at least one of the axes XX?, YY? and ZZ? of the connecting bridge (40) in order to avoid

  • Patent number: 9675395
    Abstract: An osteosynthesis clip having an overall U-shape, comprising two anchor bars and a connecting bar. The connecting bar including a longitudinal opening adapted to assume a closed configuration and an open configuration. The clip comprises a compression piece having a broadly oval-shaped section, housed in the opening. The piece is adapted to be rotated within the opening, thus causing the opening to shift from its closed configuration to at least one the open configuration and vice versa.

  • Publication number: 20170000482
    Abstract: A surgical instrument for fitting a U-shaped osteosynthesis clip having two side bars linked together at the proximal ends by a transverse bar, the transverse bar and the proximal portions forming a proximal region of the clip, the instrument including: at least one recess intended for provisionally receiving the proximal region of the osteosynthesis clip, the distal ends of the two side bars projecting from the instrument; at least blocking means capable of preventing the translation movement of the transverse bar in the proximal and distal directions; at least anti-rotation means preventing the clip from rotating about the transverse bar; and spacing means capable of engaging with the proximal region in order to increase the distance between the distal ends of the two side bars. The invention also relates to a kit including such an instrument and to a clip intended for being received in such an instrument.

  • Patent number: 8834572
    Abstract: The invention relates to an implant (1) for osseous fusion between two bones, including a first portion (20) having a longitudinal axis A, for being inserted in the first bone and including a first means (24) for attaching said implant in said first bone, and a second portion (30) having a longitudinal axis B, for being inserted in the second bone and including a second means (34) for attaching said implant in said second bone, said first and second portions (20, 30) being connected by a central core (40), said central core being a solid body, the cross-section of which, in a plane perpendicular to said longitudinal axis A, has the shape of a star having at least three points (41, 42, 43), said first portion having three tabs (21, 22, 23), each tab extending along said longitudinal axis A from the free end (41a, 42a, 43a) of one of the points of said central core.

  • Publication number: 20080263900
    Abstract: The invention relates to a therapeutic shoe which comprises a sole assembly having a tread surface (6) having a curved profile in a sagittal plane of the shoe and an upper surface (17) which comprises a location for the toes and a location for the heel. The sole assembly of the therapeutic shoe according to the invention is longitudinally flexible in the sagittal plane and is shaped so that the curved profile of the tread surface (6) extends opposite the location for the heel and the location for the toes. Furthermore, the therapeutic shoe according to the invention comprises at least one removable rigid reinforcement component (15) which acts counter to the longitudinal flexion of the sole assembly in a sagittal plane.
