Patent attributes
An implant can include a bridge member having an upper surface, a lower surface and opposed sides extending between the upper and lower surfaces, where at least the sides can be formed of a porous metal construct having a porous metal outer surface. First and second fixation members can be integrally connected with the bridge member and can include a body having a width greater than a corresponding width of the bridge member and a length greater than a corresponding length of the bridge member, where at least the body can be formed of the porous metal construct with the porous metal outer surface. The implant can be positioned into the bone segments such that the bridge member can fix the bone segments in a first direction perpendicular to the bridge member and the fixation members can fix the bone segments in a second direction parallel to the bridge member.
