Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems, devices and methods for performing a surgical step or surgical procedure for example with visual guidance using a head mounted display or with a surgical navigation system or with a surgical robot. A computer processor can be configured to determine the pose of a first vertebra with an attached first marker and a second vertebra with an attached second marker. The computer processor can be configured to determine the pose of at least one vertebra interposed or adjacent to the first and second vertebrae with attached markers, e.g. fiducial markers.

The invention features a glenoid (shoulder socket) implant prosthesis, a humeral implant prosthesis, devices for implanting glenoid and humeral implant prostheses, and less invasive methods of their use for the treatment of an injured or damaged shoulder.

A method of fusing a first bone and a second bone. An abrading and harvesting device is provided that includes a needle portion having a sharpened tip. The needle portion has a central bore extending therethrough. The needle portion has a proximal end and a distal end. The sharpened tip is attached to the distal end of the needle portion. A probe is provided having an unsharpened tip portion. The probe is extended between the first bone and the second bone. The needle portion is extended over the probe by passing the proximal end of the probe through the central bore. The first bone and the second bone are abraded with the sharpened tip to cause bleeding bone to be exposed on the first bone and the second bone. A device is placed along a path formed by the needle portion between the first bone and the second bone.

A femoral finishing rasp assembly for use in an orthopaedic surgical procedure includes a femoral finishing rasp and an impactor adaptor. The femoral finishing rasp includes femoral-facing anterior and posterior surfaces, each of which includes a corresponding set of rasping teeth. The impactor adaptor is configured to couple to an exterior surface of the femoral finishing rasp and to an orthopaedic impactor to facilitate the use of the femoral finishing rasp on a distal end of a patient's surgically-prepared femur. A method for performing an orthopaedic surgical procedure using the femoral finishing rasp assembly is also disclosed.

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.

Medical devices such as osteotomes are provided. The medical device may include inner and outer members that form a working end portion. Distal end portions of the inner and outer members can cooperate to allow deflection of the working end portion. Medical devices including indicators are also provided. The indicator may communicate a direction of deflection of the working end portion to a practitioner. Additionally, medical devices including torque release mechanisms are provided. The torque release mechanism may uncouple a first portion of the medical device from a second portion of the medical device when an amount of torque applied to the medical device exceeds a predetermined value. The torque release mechanism may limit damage to components of the medical device during use of the medical device.

Implants include fixation features which slidingly receive fixation elements. The fixation features may be negative or positive features, such as undercut channels or posts. Examples include unicompartmental tibial trays having a ridge protruding from the bone-facing side, an undercut channel formed within the ridge. Instruments are disclosed for preparing a ridge-receiving feature in bone. Implants and fixation elements are configured for implantation without penetrating a cortical wall of a bone. Instruments and surgical methods are disclosed.

A system for reaming a bone comprising: a base comprising a connector adapted to couple the base to a driver and a support surface; a first reaming member comprising: a first seating surface shaped to seat the first reaming member over the support surface, a first reaming surface adapted to ream a bone to a first diameter, and a first attachment mechanism attaching the first reaming member to the base; a second reaming member comprising: a second seating surface shaped to seat the second reaming member over the support surface, a second reaming surface adapted to ream a bone to a second diameter, and a second attachment mechanism attaching the second reaming member to the base; wherein the second diameter is larger than the first diameter.

A reamer head assembly comprising: a base member supporting a reaming member, the reaming member comprising a reaming member configured to ream bone; wherein the reaming head assembly comprises a plurality of recesses arranged about the reaming surface, the plurality of recesses configured to allow manual gripping of the reaming head assembly.

A minimally invasive method of correcting a bunion includes performing an osteotomy to divide the metatarsal into first and second portions, creating a pocket in the first portion implanting a nail in the pocket, securing a suture to the joint capsule, tensioning the suture to align the great toe with the metatarsal, attaching the suture to the nail, and fastening the nail to the second portion. The nail includes an anchor portion for anchoring in the first portion, a head for attachment to a second portion, a passage for attachment of the suture, a first aperture for a fastener to attach the head with the first portion, and a second aperture for a fastener to attach the head with the second portion.
