Abstract:
An apparatus, for reinforcing bone and tools for mounting the same, has an implant including a barrel and a device. The implant can be expanded by an expanding apparatus including an outer tub, a base, a hollow body and a handle. The expanding apparatus can be bound to the implant to place the implant into a bone to be treated and adjust the expansion degree. The expanding apparatus can be replaced by an injector apparatus including a container for bone cement and an injecting handle. The injector apparatus can inject a mixture for reinforcing bone (e.g., bone cement) into the bone through an exit, the device, the aperture, the barrel and the window of the barrel, and into the to-be treated area.
