Abstract

The disclosure relates to an implant set including a patient-specific implant, including a transport device, which is matched to an outer contour of the implant and in which the implant is received, and includes a tool for filling the implant with bone chips and/or for compressing the bone chips, the implant having an inner contour to which an outer contour of at least one end of the tool is matched. The disclosure further relates to a method for preparing for insertion of the implant by means of the implant set.

Claims (20)

1 . An implant set, comprising

a patient-specific implant, the implant having an outer contour and an inner contour,

a transport device, the transport device having an inner contour which is adapted to the outer contour of the implant and in which the implant is housed, and

a tool for filling the implant with bone chips and/or tissue structures and/or for pressing the bone chips, the tool having at least one end with an outer contour,

wherein the outer contour of the at least one end of the tool is adapted to the inner contour of the implant, and

wherein the outer contour of the implant lies against the inner contour of the transport device in such a way that bone chips in the inner contour of the implant can be pressed between the tool and the transport device.

2 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein the tool has at least two ends which are configured as rods.

3 . The implant set according to claim 2 , wherein the ends of the tool have different cross-sectional geometries.

4 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein a first portion of the tool has a circular cross-section.

5 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein the transport device has a tool receptacle prepared for holding the tool in a material-fitting, form-fitting, and/or force-fitting manner.

6 . The implant set according to claim 5 , wherein the tool receptacle forms a predetermined breaking point between the tool and the transport device.

7 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein the transport device has a main body and a closure body for holding the implant on multiple sides.

8 . The implant set according to claim 7 , wherein the closure body is displaceable relative to the main body between a first position in which the closure body abuts a portion of the main body such that the implant is enclosed, and a second position in which the closure body is spaced from the portion of the main body.

9 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein the implant has, at least in sections, a grid-like or rhombic or honeycomb structure or a pore structure.

10 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein the implant has a recess that can be filled with bone chips.

11 . Method for preparing insertion of an implant via an implant set according to claim 1 , wherein in a first step, the implant is inserted into the transport device, wherein thereafter in a second step, bone chips are filled into the implant with the tool, and wherein then in a third step, the bone chips are pressed into the implant with the tool between the tool and the transport device.

12 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein a second portion of the tool has a rectangular cross-section.

13 . The implant set according to claim 5 , wherein the tool receptacle is adapted to the outer contour of the tool.

14 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein the transport device has a main body and a closure body for contacting the implant on multiple sides.

15 . The implant set according to claim 1 , wherein the implant has a through hole that can be filled with bone chips.
