The present invention discloses a rongeur type bone and cartilage removal device incorporating first and second pivotally secured handles, the first handle terminating at a forward end in a first jaw exhibiting a plurality of extending teeth, with second handle terminating in a second jaw opposing the first jaw and exhibiting a continuous blade edge against which the teeth seats during pivotal motion of the jaws.

Tissue and bone graft removal device

A joint implant assembly including a spherical shaped component adapted to securing to an end of a first joint defining bone and a recess shaped component adapted to securing to an end of a second joint defining bone. Each of the components establishes an opposing wear surface, at which microscopic sized particles build up over time resulting from prolonged use of the joint. At least one of the spherical and recess shaped components exhibits a plurality of interior entrapment chambers, each of which including a narrow-most entranceway location communicating with the wear surface. The entrapment chambers further exhibit outwardly widening capture profiles extending within the associated component for securing volumes of the microscopic particles away from a zone defined between the wear surfaces.

Hip and knee joint assemblies incorporating debris collection architecture between the ball and seat interface

An artificial hip joint assembly including a ball mounted atop a supporting stem, the stem adapted to being mounted to a reconditioned end of a femur bone, with the ball adapted to seat within an acetabulum socket of a pelvic bone. An intermediate component is mounted between the ball and stem, the intermediate component incorporating force absorbing and redirecting properties at an engagement interface between the ball and stem in response to impact forces generated upon the ball by the pelvic bone. The intermediate component can be constructed of a softer material than either the ball or stem, the intermediate component can further include a sleeve exhibiting a plurality of interior threads and facilitating mounting of an exteriorly threaded end location of the stem.

Dynamic interface support established between a ceramic hip joint ball and a supporting ball stem

The present invention discloses a rongeur type bone and cartilage removal device incorporating a pistol shaped body exhibiting a forward extending barrel terminating in a powered saw drive including a plurality of blades. A passageway extends through an interior of the barrel and communicates the forward chain drive with a rearward positioned debris collection chamber. A power supply is incorporated into the body and, upon actuating a trigger, closes a circuit with the saw drive and a separate vacuum inducing drive in order to successively excise increments of bone for evacuation through the passageway and into the collection chamber. Another variant of the rongeur type bone removal device includes first and second pivotally secured handles, the first handle terminating at a forward end in a first jaw exhibiting a plurality of extending teeth, with second handle terminating in a second jaw opposing the first jaw and exhibiting a continuous blade edge against which the teeth seats during pivotal motion of the jaws.

A surgically implantable mesh for covering a tear or rupture in a lining associated with an interior body cavity. A mat shaped polymer body has top and bottom spaced apart surfaces which are communicable at intervals by an interior configuration defined in the body and which promotes tissue in-growth following implantation. An antibacterial additive is intermixed with the polymer in a viscous state prior to formation and can included at least one of silver, gold, copper, bronze, or ground bamboo fibers.
