A spinal implant includes a first member having a wall that defines an axial cavity. A second member extends between a first end and a second end and defines a longitudinal axis. The second member is configured for disposal with the axial cavity and translation relative to the first member. A third member has an outer surface engageable with tissue and an inner surface disposed to dynamically engage the first end in response to the engagement of the outer surface with the tissue. Systems and methods are disclosed.

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DEPLOYMENT OF AN ANCHORING DEVICE FOR INTERVERTEBRAL SPINAL FUSION

A device and methods for intervertebral spinal fusion of adjacent intervertebral bodies. An intervertebral spacer is positioned within a narrow disc space between adjacent intervertebral bodies of a patient. The spacer is arranged with upper and lower guides. The guides are adapted to simultaneously guide the deployment of upper and lower anchors of an anchoring device into their respective intervertebral bodies. The spacer is also adapted to lock the upper and lower anchors to the spacer in the deployed position.

20200146843 · 2020-05-14 ·

Exemplary embodiments of apparatuses and methods of an expandable fusion device are provided. In one embodiment, an intervertebral implant can be provided, having a first endplate having an upper surface and a lower surface, a second endplate having an upper surface and a lower surface. A first side wall extends from the first endplate and a second side wall extends from the second endplate and are configured to engage one another to provide a selective variable height between the first endplate and the second endplate. The first side wall and the second side wall form a substantially hollow portion substantially enclosed by the first endplate, second endplate and the side walls. The substantially hollow portion is configured to receive bone growth inducing material.

Small joint fixation

Disclosed is a medical device having a first implant portion having a proximal end, a second implant portion connected to the first implant portion, the second implant portion having a distal end, and a driver assembly removably connected to the distal end, the driver assembly comprising a drill connected to the distal end at a connection.

EXPANDABLE INTERVERTEBRAL IMPLANT, INSERTER INSTRUMENT, AND RELATED METHODS
20200129307 · 2020-04-30 ·

An expandable intervertebral implant includes a first endplate and a endplate, a first wedge member and a second wedge member spaced from the first wedge member that couple the first and second plates together. The first and second wedge members configured to move between a first collapsed position and a second expansion position. The implant includes an actuation member coupled to the first wedge member and the second wedge member. The first and second wedge members can be coupled to the upper and lower endplates at guide members that are asymmetric. An instrument can be coupled to the implant so as to provide a force to the actuation member that causes the wedge members to move between the collapsed position and the expansion position. The instrument can include a drive shaft and a toggle member that is configured to move the drive shaft between a first position whereby the drive shaft is configured to drive an attachment pin into the implant, and a second position whereby the drive shaft is aligned to drive the actuation member to rotate.

Spinal implant system and method

An interbody implant includes an implant body extending between an anterior surface and a posterior surface. The implant body includes a first vertebral engaging surface and a second vertebral engaging surface. At least one of the vertebral engaging surfaces defines a cavity configured for disposal of bone growth detectable via medical imaging. Systems, spinal constructs, surgical instruments and methods are disclosed.

Arthroplasty implants

Arthroplasty implants replace an articulating surface of a bone joint such as bone joints of the foot, and is characterized by a three-component device comprising a bone screw, a button, and a cap. The button incorporates knurling on its distal end to fixate onto bone, a center hole, a spherical pocket to mate with the bone screw for stabilization, and a proximal retention structure to mate with the cap. The bone screw incorporates distal bone (cortical) threads or threading, a spherical head, and a drive structure used to insert the bone screw through the hole of the button and into the bone (e.g. a distal segment of the first metatarsal). The cap incorporates a distal mating structure that retains the cap onto the button, a proximal smooth spherical head that mates with the distal surface of the bone (e.g. a phalange bone), and a tang that prevents rotation after implantation.
