METHOD AND DEVICES FOR INTRACORPOREAL BONDING OF IMPLANTS WITH THERMAL ENERGY |
| 摘要 |
The present invention provides a method for stabilizing a fractured bone. The method includes positioning an elongate rod in the medullary canal of the fractured bone and forming a passageway through the cortex of the bone. The passageway extends from the exterior surface of the bone to the medullary canal of the bone. The method also includes creating a bonding region on the elongate rod. The bonding region is generally aligned with the passageway of the cortex. Furthermore, the method includes positioning a fastener in the passageway of the cortex and on the bonding region of the elongate rod and thermally bonding the fastener to the bonding region of the elongate rod while the fastener is positioned in the passageway of the cortex. |

1. A method for stabilizing a fractured bone, the method comprising:
positioning an elongate rod in the medullary canal of the fractured bone; forming a passageway through the cortex of the bone, the passageway extending from the exterior surface of the bone to the medullary canal of the bone; creating a bonding region on the elongate rod, the bonding region generally aligned with the passageway of the cortex; positioning a fastener in the passageway of the cortex and on the bonding region of the elongate rod; and thermally bonding the fastener to the bonding region of the elongate rod while the fastener is positioned in the passageway of the cortex. |
