MENISCUS PROSTHETIC DEVICES AND ASSOCIATED METHODS |
摘要 |
Meniscus prosthetic devices are disclosed. The meniscus prosthetic devices are configured to replace the functions of a healthy natural meniscus. Methods of manufacturing, selecting, and implanting prosthetic devices for use as a replacement meniscus are also disclosed. The methods of manufacturing the prosthetic devices include injection molding polymers with reinforcing fibers in some instances. The selection methods include a pre-implantation selection method and a during-implantation selection method in some instances. The methods of implanting meniscus prosthetic devices are utilized for replacing a damaged meniscus in some instances. Collectively, the meniscus prosthetic devices and associated methods are utilized for treating patients with damaged menisci. |
