Lockable intramedullary fixation device
An orthopedic device is provided. The orthopedic device can include an intramedullary implant defining a longitudinal bore along a longitudinal axis. The intramedullary implant can define at least one bore formed along an axis for receipt of a fastener. The orthopedic device can include a fixation device receivable within the longitudinal bore. The fixation device can have at least one guiding bore formed along a guiding axis transverse to the longitudinal axis. The orthopedic device can include at least one collet received within the at least one guiding bore for positioning and locking the fastener at a variable angle relative to the guiding axis of the fixation device and the axis of the intramedullary implant.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PREPARING PROSTHETIC HIP IMPLANTATION
A system is provided for preparing prosthetic hip implantation. The system includes a first broach, a second broach, and a trial neck having a body portion and a neck portion. A proximal end of the first broach comprises a first base having a first maximum area. The body portion can be releasably coupled to the proximal end of the first broach so as to define a first offset between a medial end of the neck portion and a longitudinal axis of the first broach, or releasably coupled to the proximal end of the second broach so as to define a second offset between the medial end of the neck portion and a longitudinal axis of the second broach. The first offset is smaller than the second offset.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TREATING BONE FRACTURES
An intramedullary nail includes one or more nail openings extending therethrough. The intramedullary nail is implantable within a medullary canal of the bone. A bone plate is configured to engage an outer surface of the bone. The bone plate includes one or more plate openings extending therethrough. The plate openings are spaced about the bone plate such that the bone plate is positionable to axially align the plate openings with the nail openings when the intramedullary nail is implanted within the medullary canal of the bone. An aiming guide includes one or more targeting openings. The targeting openings are spaced about the aiming guide such that the aiming guide is positionable to axially align the targeting openings with the plate openings and the nail openings for extending one or more stabilizing fasteners therethrough when the intramedullary nail is implanted within the medullary canal of the bone.
FIFTH METATARSAL REPAIR SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF USE
The present application relates to repair systems, and more particularly to fifth metatarsal repair systems and methods of use. The repair systems described herein can include a fixation device with a threaded section. The repair systems described herein can include one or more grippers designed to be deflected outward to grip the sidewalls of an intramedullary canal of the fifth metatarsal. The repair systems described herein can include an end cap. The end cap can include a fastener including thread designed to engage the threaded section of the fixation device. The end cap can include a cap designed to move relative to the fastener.
INTERTROCHANTERIC FIXATION DEVICE
An intertrochanteric fracture fixation device. The device comprises an anterior an anterior right lateral quadrangular shaft, a posterior quadrangular shaft, an anterior left medial hemi quadrangular shaft, a plurality of screws and a plurality of rods. The vertical arm of anterior right lateral quadrangular shaft enters into the vertical arm of the posterior quadrangular shaft and the horizontal arm of the anterior left quadrangular shaft is inserted into the horizontal arm of the posterior quadrangular shaft. A plurality of spikes is present on both the combined parts of the device. The distance between each spike is 20 mm. The three shafts i.e. anterior right lateral quadrangular shaft, a posterior quadrangular shaft and an anterior left medial hemi quadrangular shaft are combined and fixed to the proximal part of the fractured site. Again the three shafts are combined and fixed to the distal part of the fractured site of the bone.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTRAMEDULLARY NAIL IMPLANTATION
Intramedullary nails, systems, and methods. The intramedullary nail may include a generally elongate body extending from a first, distal end to a second, proximal end. The distal end may include one or more openings configured to receive one or more bone anchors that extend transversely through the distal end intramedullary nail, and thereby configured to secure the distal end of the nail. The proximal end may also include one or more openings configured to receive one or more bone anchors that extend transversely through the proximal end of the intramedullary nail, and thereby configured to secure the proximal end of the nail. In some embodiments, the proximal end may further include a cross-locking feature, which includes a second bone anchor that interlocks with a first bone anchor, for example, for enhanced bone purchase and bony fixation.
