Surgical method for implanting a housing-interface assembly in a bone wall

1. A surgical method for positioning an extraoral bone-anchored implant device in a receiving bone site of a patient, said patient being a human being or an animal, comprising a first surgical step comprising the following successive steps:

step of preparing the receiving bone site, during which:

the cutaneous plane facing the receiving bone site is incised, then

the periosteum of the receiving bone site is first detached and then reclined to clear a bone structure, then

the bone structure in the receiving bone site is cut in order to create an opening in which the implant device will be positioned;

step of impacting the implant in the opening formed in the receiving bone site;

step of leveling the implant and the surrounding bone structure and making them continuous, during which:

an external table of the bone structure is rubbed at its part surrounding the implant, then

bone fragments are positioned on the rubbed parts of the external table of the bone structure, then

said bone fragments are covered with a membrane to hold the bone fragments in position, said membrane being attached to the bone structure on one side and to the implant on the other side, so as to prevent bone proliferation on said implant;

wherein the method comprises a second surgical phase of 3 to 4 months after the first surgical step for impacting the bone-anchored extraoral implant, said second surgical phase comprising a step of positioning a housing device in an opening provided in the implant device, in replacing a temporary closing device that was positioned in said opening during the first surgical step.

2. The surgical method of claim 1 , wherein, during the step of preparing the receiving bone site, bone fragments resulting from cutting of the bone structure are collected, in order to use said bone fragments during the step of leveling.

3. The surgical method of claim 1 , wherein the step of preparing the receiving bone site is done under continuous irrigation to limit heating of the receiving bone site.

4. The surgical method of claim 1 , wherein, after the opening is formed in the bone structure, the edges of the opening are formed with a truncated cone shape.

5. The surgical method of claim 1 , wherein the step of impacting the implant comprises first the insertion of the implant device, then progressive impaction of said device in the opening by tapping the implant to force it into the opening.

6. The surgical method of claim 1 , further comprising a step of bone integration consisting of covering the membrane and flush portion of the implant by the periosteum and then by skin flap of the patient, after a hematoma drain has been positioned.

7. The surgical method of claim 1 , wherein at least one interface device is positioned in the housing device, said interface device being then connected to one or more elements situated inside an organism of the patient.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the interface device is further connected with devices for transmission with the outside of the organism of the patient, said transmission devices being positioned in the organism of the patient subcutaneously or percutaneously.
