Rasp handle adapter

Disclosed herein are rasp adapters, rasp systems, and method of use thereof. The rasp adapter can include a body and a retention element. The body can define a body cavity, a handle opening, and a trunnion bore. The retention element can be located within the body cavity and can include a knuckle and a heal. The knuckle can be located proximate to and movable into and out of the trunnion bore. The heal can be located proximate the handle opening. Movement of the retention element due to a force applied to the heal can cause movement of the retention element and movement of the knuckle into the trunnion bore.

MILLING DEVICE FOR SURGERY
20220330972 · 2022-10-20 · ·

A milling device for surgery, in particular prosthetic surgery, comprising a handling body containing a transmission unit terminating in attachment portions and with which there is rotatably associated a cutter, said device comprising hooking means of the releasable type associated with a distal attachment portion of said attachment portions.

CIRCULAR FIXATOR SYSTEM AND METHOD

A device comprises a base. A support is attached to the base. The support is shaped to receive a calf of a person and adapted to receive a wire or pin for securing a tibia of a person. A foot plate is attachable to the base. The foot plate has a plurality of attached members. The members are configured for receiving at least a first wire or pin to fix a foot of the person relative to the foot plate while the foot plate is oriented normal to a superior-inferior direction of the foot. The foot plate is rotatable relative to the base while the foot plate is attached to the base.

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) methods and devices
11464653 · 2022-10-11 · ·

Embodiments of the present disclosure includes method and devices for minimally invasive spinal fusion surgery. A method for minimally invasive spinal fusion surgery can include accessing a spinal column through a working channel device, wherein the working channel has a proximal end and a distal end, advancing the working channel so that the distal end pierces an outer layer of a vertebral disc, inserting a disc extractor through the working channel device and into the vertebral disc to cut the vertebral disc into pieces, inserting a disc blade through the working channel device and into the vertebral disc to cut the vertebral disc into pieces, using a disc rake to remove the pieces of the vertebral disc, inserting a disc shaver to clean a number of surfaces of vertebra adjacent to the vertebral disc, and inserting and implanting a disc implant in a space from where the vertebral disc was removed.

Multi-portal surgical systems

A multi-portal method for treating a subject's spine includes distracting adjacent vertebrae using a distraction instrument positioned at a first entrance along the subject to enlarge an intervertebral space between the adjacent vertebrae. An interbody fusion implant can be delivered into the enlarged intervertebral space. The interbody fusion implant can be positioned directly between vertebral bodies of the adjacent vertebrae while endoscopically viewing the interbody fusion implant using an endoscopic instrument. The patient's spine can be visualized using endoscopic techniques to view, for example, the spine, tissue, instruments and implants before, during, and after implantation, or the like. The visualization can help a physician throughout the surgical procedure to improve patient outcome.

Hip arthroplasty planning and template design
11622811 · 2023-04-11 · ·

A computer-aided method of pre-operative planning of hip joint replacement is provided for establishing, from patient-specific images, femoral and acetabular implant sizes and cut planes. Image slices of a patient's hip joint are obtained. Coordinate positions of selected femur and acetabulum points (e.g., femoral head center, major trochanter midpoint, femoral shaft midpoint, acetabular rim high points and lowest point) in the images are marked, which allows the planning tool to perform a best fit analysis to offer a range of suitable implant and surgical cut plane parameters for selection by a surgeon. Patient-specific surgical jigs can then be constructed for the proximal femur and acetabulum of the hip joint corresponding to a surgeon selection between standard, mini, short-stem, and resurfacing hip replacement components and in accord with the surgeon-selected parameters.

SURGICAL IMPACTOR NAVIGATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS

This disclosure relates to systems for assisting surgeons in implanting joint replacement implant components. One aspect provides a system for assisting a surgeon in implanting a joint replacement implant component during a surgery of replacing a joint. The system comprises: an instrument for medullary canal preparation; a video camera to capture image data of the instrument; a computer system to: store a surgical plan; determine a pose of the instrument relative to the bone or the joint based on the image data from the video camera; assess the pose of the instrument against the surgical plan; and provide an indication to the surgeon of a clinical consequence of the pose in relation to the surgical plan.

ORTHOPEDIC INSTRUMENT ADAPTERS
20220313336 · 2022-10-06 ·

In general, orthopedic instrument adapters and methods of using orthopedic instrument adapters are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, an adapter is configured to releasably attach to an end effector configured to impact bone. The end effector can be a broach, chisel, or other surgical implement. The adapter includes a spring-loaded hook that is configured to releasably seat in a cut-out formed in the end effector. The adapter is also configured to releasably attach to a surgical impacting tool, such as an orthopedic impactor, configured to drive impacting of the end effector relative to bone.

Cannulated, modular femoral broach and surgical instrument handle

An orthopaedic surgical instrument assembly includes a surgical reamer, a cannulated broach, and an instrument handle. The broach includes a bore sized to slide over a shaft of the reamer. The handle attaches to the broach and also includes a bore sized to slide over a shaft of the reamer. A modular broach assembled from a number of broach segments may be used. Methods associated with the surgical instrument assembly are also disclosed.
