61 results about "Osteosynthesis" patented technology

Osteosynthesis is the reduction and internal fixation of a bone fracture with implantable devices that are usually made of metal. It is a surgical procedure with an open or per cutaneous approach to the fractured bone. Osteosynthesis aims to bring the fractured bone ends together and immobilize the fracture site while healing takes place. In a fracture that is rigidly immobilized the fracture heals by the process of intramembranous ossification. Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen is a major organisation dealing with issues of osteosynthesis.

Plate used for clavicle fracture or the like

PendingJP2025178025ABone platesBone splintersRotator cuff injury
To address such a problem that in a case of distal clavicle fractures requiring osteosynthesis, even when being fixed using a hook plate or tension band fixation, problems such as rotator cuff tears, restricted range of motion, acromial resorption, or insufficient fixation strength have been observed.SOLUTION: A distal end of a plate stem and a bent part allow for fixation of a distal bone fragment to a proximal bone fragment. When a locking screw is fixed within a bone marrow through a hole in the bent part, complications associated with hooks of conventional hook plates are eliminated and an effect similar to that of a hook plate is achieved. In addition, a tension band fixing method, etc. can be performed through the hole of the bent part. This solves problems such as the rotator cuff tears, restricted range of motion, acromial resorption, or insufficient fixation strength. It can also be applied to fractures other than acromioclavicular joint dislocation and distal clavicle fractures.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
