An acetabular spacer device, of a type that is temporary and disposable, adapted to be implanted in use in a bone cavity placed at a joint of the human body, such as a hip or shoulder joint, has a cup-like shape, substantially hemispherical, and includes a first convex surface, adapted to be positioned at the bone cavity, a second concave surface, which defines a cavity, further includes at least one pharmaceutical or medical substance, such as at least one antibiotic, adapted to treat during use an ongoing infection in the bone cavity.

Acetabular spacer device comprising a pharmaceutical substance

A temporary spacer device for a joint of the human body such as a knee joint includes a first component or femoral component, adapted to be constrained to a bone or to the femoral bone of a patient, at the joint of the human body; a second component or tibial component, adapted to be constrained to a bone or tibial bone of a patient, at the joint of the human body, and at least one stem having a proximal end, wherein the first component or femoral component and/or the second component or tibial component include at least one housing seat for the proximal end of the at least one stem, adapted to allow the inclination and/or rotation of the at least a stem with respect to an insertion axis of the proximal end into the at least one housing seat.

Temporary spacer device for joints of the human body

A mold for forming a temporary prosthesis has at least two mold members at least partially separable from each other. The at least two mold members cooperatively define a generally enclosed interior cavity for forming the temporary prosthesis. The mold has a securement structure mounted on the at least two mold members for securing the at least two mold members to each other during the forming of the temporary prosthesis. The securement structure is removable from the at least two mold members by hand and without the use of a tool.

Spacer molds with releasable securement

A hip spacer mold forming a spacer with a spacer stem connected to a spacer head has a stem portion for forming a spacer stem. The hip spacer mold also has a plurality of interchangeable head modules configured for alternatively forming spacer heads of a plurality of different predetermined sizes. The head modules are configured to be disposed adjacent the stem portion.
