Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of orthopedic surgery, and to cartilage and or bone surface repair. Embodiments herein relate to implants for replacing a portion of cartilage and / or a portion of bone, and to design methods for such implants. Further embodiments also relate to surgical kits, tool kits, and methods for replacing a portion of an articular surface of a joint. Background technique

[0002] In surgical procedures where small implants are placed, setting the implant in a precise manner is critical. If the implant misaligns from its intended position, this can cause increased wear or load on the joint. For example, if the implant tilts, it can cause the edges to protrude above the cartilage tissue and cause wear on the opposing cartilage of the joint. Another example is when an implant is placed with the surface of the implant protruding above the surface of the cartilage, this will cause the joint to move in an uneven ...
