A filament-anchored balloon implant stays fixed between joint tissues after inflation, helping restore function without filler displacement.

A spine-and-winding suture assembly secures ligament grafts without penetration, cutting prep time, trauma, and fixation elongation.

A flexible protective mesh covers the penis during circumcision to resist blade penetration and reduce accidental tissue injury.

A helical-slot anchor expands along its full length to compress graft tissue evenly against bone tunnel walls for durable fixation.

A slip-clutch tissue anchor limits insertion torque and depth by disengaging the driver interface, helping prevent overtightening and tissue damage.

A collar-and-plug fixation assembly holds graft suture tension before final locking and seals bone apertures to retain healing fluids.

Coordinated concentric shafts rotate and advance a suture anchor while holding eyelet position and suture tension for stable tendon-bone fixation.

A tendon-shaping suture guide enlarges the repair target and controls needle angles for stronger Achilles repair through small incisions.
