A transformable implantable device is disclosed comprising primary and secondary phases or materials. The secondary phase or material is relatively rigid compared to the primary phase or material and also renders the transformable implantable device relatively rigid compared to the primary phase or material. The secondary phase or material, upon implantation, becomes more flexible, thereby rendering the transformable implantable device more flexible also. The device can be, f. ex., a spinal fixation device, an intervertebral disc implant device, or a spinal ligament repair and reinforcement device.
L'invention porte sur un dispositif implantable transformable comprenant des phases ou matériaux, primaires et secondaires. La phase ou matériau secondaire est relativement rigide comparée à la phase ou matériau primaire et rend de ce fait le dispositif implantable transformable relativement rigide par rapport à la phase ou matériau primaire. Lors de l'implantation la deuxième phase ou matériau secondaire devient plus souple ce qui rend également le dispositif implantable transformable plus souple.
