Patent

CA 2400811

Interbody fusion implants (10) that include a load bearing body (20) composed of a calcium phosphate material hardened around one or more structural reinforcing members (30) are provided. The reinforcing members (30) aid the load bearing body (20) in resisting bending forces and, in certain forms of the invention, aid in preventing expulsion of the implant after implantation. Methods for promoting fusion bone growth in the space between adjacent vertebrae and methods for making the inventive implants are also provided.

L'invention concerne des implants de fusion entre corps, comprenant un corps porteur constitué d'un matériau au phosphate de calcium durci autour d'un ou plusieurs éléments de renforcement structurel. Les élément de renforcement aident le corps porteur à résister aux forces de flexion et, sous certaines formes de l'invention, aident à prévenir l'expulsion de l'implant après l'implantation. Des procédés favorisant la croissance osseuse et la fusion dans l'espace situé entre les vertèbres adjacentes et des procédés de fabrication des implants de l'invention sont également décrits.
