Surgical wire driver capable of automatically adjusting for the diameter of the wire or pin being driven
A wire driver for driving a wire or pin into living tissue. A plural bar linkage that includes a lever is actuated to drive the components that selectively grasp the wire from a release state to a grasping state.
MEDICAL SCREW SURGICAL DEVICE, SURGICAL ROBOT WITH THE SAME, AND SURGICAL METHOD OF USING SURGICAL ROBOT WITH MEDICAL SCREW SURGICAL DEVICE
A medical screw surgical device includes: a surgical device main body shaped like a bar and internally formed with an insertion passage; an extension member provided in a lower portion of the surgical device main body and internally formed with a guide hole; a guide member movably provided in the guide hole of the extension member; and a firing member provided in the insertion passage of the surgical device main body and controlling the guide member to move up and down. A surgical robot having a robot arm with the medical screw surgical device includes: a support arm provided in the robot arm; a surgical device holding member provided in the support arm; and the medical screw surgical device provided in the surgical device holding member.
Joint reaming devices and methods
Surgical instrumentation and methods for reaming a bone are disclosed. In some cases, the bone is a glenoid of a shoulder. The surgical instrumentation can include a bushing that acts as a guide for a reamer, which reams the bone.
Surgical Targeting Device
Disclosed is a surgical targeting device for assisting placement of an elongated guidance member in a bone. The targeting device comprises a bottom portion having a dome-shaped convex outer surface and comprising a guidance through-hole extending along a guidance through-hole central axis for receiving the guidance member. A top portion of the targeting device is configured to be gripped by a tool. Further, a surgical system is disclosed which comprises the surgical targeting device.
ENDOVASCULAR COIL AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME
Disclosed are example embodiments of an endovascular coil having a twisted
Bone repositioning guide system and procedure
An improved surgical system and procedure for correcting a deformity between first and second bones using an alignment guide based on a correction factor. The correction factor can be based on a virtual model of the first and second bones in a deformed configuration and a corrected configuration. In the virtual corrected configuration, first and second virtual axes can be fixed in the respective first and second bones. When reverted to the virtual deformed configuration, the orientation of the first and second axes can be used to determine the correction factor. The alignment guide is used to insert one or more k-wires into each of the first and second bones in a deformed configuration. A correction guide is passed along the k-wires to rotate and/or translate the first bone relative to the second bone into the corrected configuration.
