Abstract: A prosthetic spinal disc nucleus comprising a first prosthetic body, a second prosthetic body and a coupling means. The first and second prosthetic bodies each have sufficient structural integrity for maintaining a desired separation between an opposing pair of vertebrae and a volume that is less than a volume of the nucleus cavity. The coupling means selectively associates the first prosthetic body with the second prosthetic body. During use, the first prosthetic body is inserted into a nucleus cavity through an opening in an anulus. The coupling means is configured such that the second prosthetic body does not impede insertion of the first prosthetic body. The second prosthetic body is similarly implanted. Following implant, the coupling means relatively fixes the first and second prosthetic bodies to prevent subsequent movement of the prosthetic spinal disc nucleus, or any portion thereof, back through the opening in the anulus.

Abstract: Flexible microcatheter having regions of different flexibility integrally and strategically placed along and about the length of a one-piece composite catheter tube. Distally the flexible microcatheter exhibits pronounced flexibility with respect to locations or regions of flexibility located proximally for navigation along tortuous vascular paths. Different regions of flexibility are formed by applying resins of different Shore hardness readings either singularly or in combination along and about a braid which overlies an inner resin layer. The encapsulated braid provides resistance to kinking and bending of the flexible microcatheter as well as providing for torque transmission and pushability along the length of the flexible microcatheter.

Abstract: According to a method for producing a solid body ( 1 ) including a microstructure ( 2 ), the surface of a substrate ( 3 ) is provided with a masking layer ( 6 ) that is impermeable to a substance to be applied. The substance is then incorporated into the substrate regions not covered by the masking layer ( 6 ). A heat treatment is used to diffuse the substance into a substrate region covered by the masking layer ( 6 ) such that a concentration gradient of the substance is created in the substrate region covered by the masking layer ( 6 ), proceeding from the edge of the masking layer ( 6 ) inward with increasing distance from the edge. The masking layer ( 6 ) is then removed to expose the substrate region under this layer, and a near-surface layer of the substrate ( 3 ) in the exposed substrate region is converted by a chemical conversion reaction into a coating ( 9 ) which has a layer thickness profile corresponding to the concentration gradient of the substance contained in this near-surface layer. A supplementary treatment is implemented in a subsection of the coating ( 9 ) in which the thickness of the coating ( 9 ) is reduced.
