LAG SCREW SYSTEMS AND NAIL SYSTEMS AND METHODS INCORPORATING THE SAME
A trochanteric fracture nail system includes: a trochanteric fracture nail and a lag screw system adapted and configured for fixation medially through the trochanteric fracture nail. The trochanteric fracture nail includes: a substantially cylindrical wall defining a longitudinal bore; at least one lateral bore intersecting the longitudinal bore; and a detent on an inner surface of at least one of the at least one lateral bore. The lag screw system includes a lag screw and an interference member. The lag screw includes: an annular body defining a substantially hollow central bore; and a keel located along the annular body. The keel is adapted and configured to substantially lie within an outer profile of the annular body when in a neutral position. The interference member is adapted and configured to displace the keel radially to resist motion of the annular body by engaging with the detent of the trochanteric fracture nail.
Femur plate
A femur plate is provided, the femur plate comprising a first end portion anatomically pre-formed to conform to a trochanter region of the femur and a second end portion anatomically pre-formed to conform to a condyle region of the femur, wherein the second end portion comprises at least one first opening configured to receive a bone fastener. The femur plate further comprises an elongate shaft extending from the first end portion to the second end portion, the elongate shaft comprising at least one second opening configured to receive a bone fastener. Furthermore, a periprosthetic implant system comprising the femur plate and a method of implanting the femur plate are provided.
Percutaneous methods, systems, and devices for positioning a guide wire in a bone
Minimally invasive percutaneous methods, devices, and systems for placing guide wires in bones in a desired position and orientation and for facilitating the treatment of fractures such as but not limited to intertrochanteric fractures or other applications such as osteotomies. The methods, devices, and systems may allow for rapid and reproducible placement of a guide wire in a bone. Each degree of freedom may be controlled independently.

Femoral base plate THA
A method of creating a mass-customized femoral bone base plate comprising: (i) establishing anatomical landmarks across a plurality of bone models of a statistical atlas; (ii) establishing instrument landmarks across the plurality of bone models of the statistical atlas; (iii) establishing definitions for a reference plane calculation across the plurality of bone models of the statistical atlas, where the reference plane represents a boundary of a prosthetic implant; (iv) establishing an attachment site for a mass-customized femoral bone base plate using the anatomical landmarks, the instrument landmarks, and the reference plane; and, (v) fabricating the mass-customized femoral bone base plate configured to be attached to a femur, where the attachment sites of the mass-customized femoral bone base plate are predetermined to avoid impingement with the prosthetic implant when implanted.
