    摘要: A light diffuser (10), which is particularly suitable for introducing diffuse light into a tissue, is produced by interpenetration of a diffuser material in a liquid state into a boundary layer (4) of a porous shaping material, by which process a diffuser surface is formed having a surface structure which represents essentially a negative of the pore structure of the shaping material and includes undercut structures induced by a surface tension. The light diffuser (10) is e.g. produced by introducing a diffuser blank (1) including material which is liquefiable through mechanical vibration into the shaping material and simultaneously stimulating it with mechanical vibrations, such that the liquefiable material liquefies at least there where it is in contact with the shaping material and is pressed into the shaping material. An in situ production of the diffuser is particularly advantageous for photodynamic therapy in bone tissue (20).

    摘要: A graft or prosthetic element suitable e.g. for replacing a tendon or ligament is fastened in a bone tunnel or blind opening with the aid of a fastener. In a first step, the graft or prosthetic element is press-fitted in the tunnel or opening by forcing the fastener into the opening or by positioning the fastener in the opening and then expanding it, wherein the fastener is in contact with the graft or prosthetic element and with the bone wall of the tunnel or blind opening. In a second step, the fastener is anchored in the bone wall of the tunnel or blind opening with the aid of a liquefiable material which is liquefied in the vicinity of the bone wall where it is in contact with the fastener and by making the liquefied material penetrate into the bone wall.

    摘要: An apparatus for automated implantation of an implant or for an automated augmentation process of hard tissue and/or hard tissue replacement material using a sheath element is provided. The apparatus comprises a casing, a converter operable to generate mechanical vibrations the converter inside the casing and displaceable in a longitudinal direction relative to the casing, and a sonotrode coupled to an output location of the converter. A shaft portion with a retention structure is rotationally coupled to the casing and is equipped for cooperating with a rotationally asymmetric element of the sheath element to rotationally couple the casing to the sheath element. An axial coupling is equipped for locking the casing to the sheath element. The shaft portion, the axial coupling and the sonotrode are mutually arranged so that the a distal end of the sonotrode may be introduced into a longitudinal opening of the sheath element.

    摘要: A method suitable for anchoring an anchoring element in an object, which anchoring element is compressible in the direction of a compression axis under local enlargement of a distance between a peripheral anchoring element surface and the compression axis. The anchoring element has a coupling-in face which serves for coupling the mechanical vibrations into the anchoring element, which coupling-in face is not parallel to the compression axis. The anchoring element further includes a thermoplastic material which in areas of the peripheral surface enlargement forms at least a part of the surface of the anchoring element, the method includes the steps of: providing a bore in the object; positioning the anchoring element in the bore; and coupling the compressing force and the mechanical vibrations through the coupling-in face into the positioned anchoring element.

    摘要: An osteosynthesis screw (1) used especially for application by a translaminar vertebral screw, comprises a shaft (3) at least partially provided with a thread (2) and a head (4) formed at one of its ends and having a notch (5) for a tool. Said shaft (3) has a section (A) with a thread (2) on the end section oriented towards the head (4). The remaining section (B) of the shaft (3) up to the free end is produced without a thread. The head (4) has a diameter (D1) corresponding at least approximately to the outer diameter (DA) of the thread (2) and is provided with the inner notch (5) for a tool. The section (A) of the shaft (3) with the thread (2) has a configuration of uniform thickness, e.g. a trilobular configuration. Thus, the invention provides an osteosynthesis screw (1) exhibiting a short section (A) with a thread (2) and a long section (B) without a thread, said screw having a pull-out head (4) which is secured both axially and rotationally.
