Apparatus for use in surgery
11617661 · 2023-04-04 · ·

The invention provides a targeting device suitable for use in removing a femoral implant from the surrounding tissue, wherein the device comprises: (A) an anterior guide member (1), (B) a posterior guide member (4), (C) an engagement member (7), (D) a first pair of parallel connector rails (509, 510), and (E) an adjustment system (13). When the anterior guide member and the posterior guide member are connected by the first pair of connector rails, via the engagement member, the angled channels of the anterior guide member and the posterior guide member converge in the direction of a distal end, with the convergence angle of the angled channels being in the range of from 2 to 6 degrees, such as from 2 to 5 degrees.

Punch, implant and associated method

A kit for use in performing joint arthroplasty on a head of a long bone is disclosed. The kit includes: a first implant including a first implant articulating surface and an opposed first implant mounting surface having a first implant location feature; and an instrument for preparing a cavity in the head of the long bone. The instrument includes a body and a punch extending from the body. The punch includes a portion thereof having a shape similar to the first implant location surface of the implant. A method for providing joint arthroplasty is also disclosed.

APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR SPINE AND SACROILIAC JOINT REPAIR

Method for placing implant using robotic system
09795394 · 2017-10-24 · ·

A method for placing an implant on a patient in a robotic surgical procedure using a robotic system. During the robotic surgical procedure, a navigation system tracks the patient. The navigation system also provides information to the robotic system to guide movement of a cutting tool to remove material from the patient such that a cut surface is created to receive the implant. The implant is then robotically placed on the cut surface.
