CA 2469555

The present invention provides a method and device for restoring individual patient joint kinematics using minimally invasive surgical procedures. The instrumentation of the invention sculpts the articular surface of a first bone that normally articulates in a predetermined manner with a second bone. The instrumentation includes a bone sculpting tool and a mount for attaching the tool to the second bone. The implant system is comprised of implants that provide intraoperative surgical options for articular constraint and facilitate proper alignment and orientation of the joint to restore kinematics as defined by the individual patient anatomy.

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de restaurer la cinématique de l'articulation d'un patient individuel à l'aide de procédures chirurgicales les moins invasives possibles. Les instruments de l'invention permettent de sculpter la surface articulaire d'un premier os qui normalement s'articule d'une manière prédéterminée à un deuxième os. Ces instruments comportent un outil de sculpture de l'os et une monture destinée à fixer l'outil au deuxième os. Le système implant comporte des implants qui offrent des options en termes de chirurgie péropératoire pour la contrainte articulaire et qui facilitent l'alignement et l'orientation de l'articulation pour restaurer la cinématique conformément à l'anatomie propre au patient.
