A bio-bones prosthetic system for tissue donor cadavers for replacing bones to reconstruct the body to a normal appearance for a funeral service, comprising:
- a rigid tubing, for providing structure to the donor once bones have been recovered;
- an oval tubes, for providing a simple way to adjust the length of each component and providing a simple twist locking mechanism that offers ease of use & function with no need for any sharps, pins, pegs, ties or screws;
- a friction lock, for providing a simple way to lock tubes in place at the desired length;
- a polylactic acid, for providing the funeral home with ease of processing the donor so that the body will degrade in either burial or cremation;
- a hand molded, for offering a custom fit prior to, or during recovery. rigid tubes can be molded onsite using boiling water and re-adjusted to fit each donor;
- an abrasive surface, for creating a friction surface to minimize any slippage during adjustments;
- an upper extremity, for replacing recovered humerus, radius and ulna with a flexible elbow;
- a humerus, for replacing a recovered humerus bone;
- a flexible elbow, for allowing movement in the elbow, adjustably connected to said humerus;
- a radius & ulna, for replacement of the lower arm, adjustably connected to said flexible elbow;
- a lower extremity, for replacing recovered femur, tibia & fibula;
- a molded ankle, for attaching into the lower extremities to provide ankle support, rigidly connected to said lower extremity;
- a pelvic, for connecting the lower extremities after hemi pelvis recovery;
- a molded hip, for attaching to both the pelvic and lower extremity prosthetics to lock components in place, rigidly connected to said pelvic, and rigidly connected to said lower extremity;
- a spine, for replacing a recovered portion of the spinal column;
- a cervical, for replacing recovered portions of the upper spinal column;
- a lumbar, for replacing recovered portions of the lower spinal column;
- a knee block, for replacing recovered knee from either leg;
- a peg 1, for use in securing upper portion of bio-bone lumbar or knee block into the remaining cavity in the bones, rigidly connected to said lumbar;
- a peg 2, for use in securing lower portion of bio-bone lumbar or knee block into the remaining cavity in the bones, rigidly connected to said lumbar;
- a peg 3, for use in securing upper portion of bio-bone lumbar or knee block into the remaining cavity in the bones, rigidly connected to said knee block;
- and
- a peg 4, for use in securing lower portion of bio-bone lumbar or knee block into the remaining cavity in the bones, rigidly connected to said knee block.
