IN-SITU BIOPROTHESIS FILLER AND ASSOCIATED METHODS, IN PARTICULAR FOR THE IN-SITU FORMATION OF INTERVERTEBRAL DISC BIOPROTHESES |
abstract |
Bioprosthetic devices (10) include an exterior biological tissue member (10-1) which at least partly defines a cavity, and a proteinaceous biopolymer (10-2) which fills the cavity, and intercalates and is chemically bound (fixed) to the tissue of the surrounding biological tissue member. In preferred forms, the bioprosthetic device (10) is a bioprosthetic vertebral disc, having a fibrillar outer annulus which surrounds and defines an interior cavity and is formed by removal of at least a substantial portion of the natural gelatinous core therefrom. The cavity defined by the fibrillar outer annulus may then be filled with a flowable proteinaceous biopolymer (10-2). Preferably, the proteinaceous biopolymer (10-2) is a liquid mixture comprised of human or animal-derived protein material and a di- or polyaldehyde, which are allowed to react in situ to form a cross-linked biopolymer within the cavity. The liquid mixture may be formed in advance of being introduced into the cavity, or may be formed simultaneously during introduction into the cavity. |
