Systems and Methods for Internal Bone Fixation |
摘要 |
Internal bone fixation devices and methods for using the devices for repairing a weakened or fractured bone are disclosed herein. A device for use in repairing a fractured bone includes a delivery catheter having an elongated shaft with a proximal end, a distal end, and a longitudinal axis therebetween, wherein the delivery catheter has an inner void for passage of at least one reinforcing material and an inner lumen for passage of a light source; a conformable member releasably engaging the distal end of the delivery catheter, wherein the conformable member moves from a deflated state to an inflated state when the at least one reinforcing material is delivered to the conformable member; and an adapter releasably engaging the proximal end of the delivery catheter for receiving the light source and the at least one reinforcing material. |

1. A device for repairing a bone comprising:
a balloon portion releasably engaging a distal end of a delivery catheter, wherein one or more radiopaque markers are positioned on the balloon portion; an inner lumen of the delivery catheter engaging the balloon portion; a light pipe to a guide light energy into the balloon portion; and at least one reinforcing material curable by the light energy emitted from the light pipe; wherein the balloon portion is configured to move from a deflated state to an inflated state when the at least one reinforcing material is added into the balloon portion, wherein the balloon portion is configured for placement into a cavity of the bone. |
