Abstract
The invention relates to a surgical assembly for the implantation of an implantable device in a cavity formed in an osseous structure, comprising abase template intended to be fixed to the osseous structure and a plurality of interchangeable templates intended to be successively coupled to the base template, each of the interchangeable templates having at least one through opening to be used for guiding of a tool to form the cavity in the osseous structure and/or position of the implantable device into the cavity.
Claims19
A surgical assembly for the implantation of an implantable device in a cavity formed in an osseous structure, comprising a base template designed to be fixed to the osseous structure and a plurality of interchangeable templates intended to be successively coupled to the base template, each of the interchangeable templates having at least one through opening to be used for guiding of a tool to form the cavity in the osseous structure and/or for positioning of the implantable device into the cavity,
- wherein the base template comprises a receiving portion for the coupling of each one of the plurality of interchangeable templates to the base template, said receiving portion having a reference surface for specifically positioning each one of the plurality of interchangeable templates relative to the base template, and
- wherein the assembly further comprises a retaining element to securely fasten each of the plurality of interchangeable templates relative to the base template.
A surgical assembly for the implantation of an implantable device in a cavity formed in an osseous structure, comprising a base template designed to be fixed to the osseous structure and a plurality of interchangeable templates intended to be successively coupled to the base template, each of the interchangeable templates having at least one through opening to be used for guiding of a tool to form the cavity in the osseous structure or for positioning of the implantable device into the cavity,
- wherein the base template comprises a receiving portion for the coupling of each one of the plurality of interchangeable templates to the base template, said receiving portion having a reference surface for specifically positioning each one of the plurality of interchangeable templates relative to the base template, said reference surface being designed to form a large surface of contact with the interchangeable template for spreading stress transmitted from the interchangeable template to the osseous structure when the cavity is formed or the implantable device is positioned in the cavity, and
- wherein the assembly further comprises a retaining element to securely fasten each of the plurality of interchangeable templates relative to the base template.
