| titleOfInvention |
Prosthetics and methods for replacing the nucleus pulposus of an intervertebral disc or for replacing the entire intervertebral disc |
| abstract |
Prosthetic nucleus to replace the natural nucleus of the intervertebral disc (5). The prosthetic nucleus of the present invention includes a partially collapsed sealed envelope (10) made from a material that is permeable to extracellular body fluids. The envelope contains a solute (20) that provides osmotic potential before and after the envelope walls. In use, a partially collapsed envelope is surgically implanted in the hollow interior of the disc, which absorbs bodily fluids, thereby effecting expansion of the envelope and subsequent expansion of the disc. |
