Composite Allograft, Press, And Methods

US Patent:
5824078, Oct 20, 1998
Filed:
Mar 11, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/647424
Inventors:
Carl Nelson - Little Rock AR
J. Marcus Hollis - Milton FL
Charlene Flahiff - North Little Rock AR
William Hogue - Little Rock AR
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of The University of Arkansas - Little Rock AR
International Classification:
A61F 200, B30B 1514
US Classification:
623 66
Abstract:
A composite allograft press comprises a loading frame and a two piece mold to form an composite allograft and in particular an acetabular cup from impacted cancellous bone chips and cement. Pressure is applied by a manually operated lever through a rack-and-pinion gear mechanism to a plunger attached to one part of the mold. Compression load switches in-line with the plunger indicate the correct loading to the mold to produce a composite allograft in which the inner surface is smooth and comprised essentially of hardened bone cement material. The outer portion of the allograft may have limited cement extrusions but the exterior of the cup primarily shows exposed cancellous bone surface. In surgery a composite allograft; e. g. , an acetabular cup, is fixed in the acetabulum with bone screws to fill an acetabular defect.
