The present invention discloses fusion systems and methods of assembly and use. The fusion systems include a first fastener, a second fastener, and an elongate member with a first end and a second end. The first end being secured to the first fastener and the second end being secure to the second fastener. The method of assembling a fusion system and methods of using the fusion systems are also disclosed.

A surgical polygonal locking screw removal device includes: a body including a passage part in which a passage having a preset diameter is formed, and a polygonal expansion part configured to be coupled to a polygonal groove formed in a surgical locking screw to remove the surgical locking screw, the polygonal expansion part protruding from a leading end of the passage part; and a handle configured to be inserted into a rear end of the passage part and screw-coupled to the passage part, and configured to expand the polygonal expansion part.

A bone graft delivery system includes a rasp having an elongate body extending between a proximal end and a distal end, a lumen extending through the elongate body and configured to receive bone graft material, a rasping surface removably couplable to the distal end of the elongate body and configured to decorticate bone material of a patient, and one or more openings configured to deliver bone graft material from the lumen.

A polyaxial screwdriver for inserting a bone screw in a vertebra. A polyaxial bone screw assembly includes a coupling element. When a screw engaging end of the polyaxial screwdriver is lowered on the head of the bone screw, the complimentary surfaces of the screw engaging end of the screwdriver and the head of the screw self-align. A ratchet mechanism formed in the screwdriver provides progressive and automatic locking of the polyaxial screwdriver to the coupling element and prevents the accidental unthreading from the coupling element. In another embodiment of the polyaxial screwdriver, a collet slides over the outside surface of the upper end of the coupling element and locks on to the coupling element. In yet another embodiment of a polyaxial screwdriver, the outer sleeve of the polyaxial screwdriver has a split end that securely engages the coupling element.

A rotational correction system includes an implant having first and second sections, the implant having a rotatable permanent magnet disposed in a housing of the first section, the rotatable permanent magnet mechanically connected to a nut operatively coupled to the second section. A keyed portion is interposed between the nut and one or more non-linear grooves disposed on an inner surface of the housing. An external adjustment device having at least one rotatable magnet configured to rotate the rotatable permanent magnet of the implant is part of the system. Rotation of the rotatable permanent magnet of the implant in a first direction effectuates a clockwise change in the rotational orientation of the first section relative to the second section and rotation of the rotatable permanent magnet of the implant in a second direction effectuates a counter-clockwise change in the rotational orientation of the first section relative to the second section.

Surgical instruments and devices including drivers, inserters, and reducers. The driver includes a ratcheting mechanism configured to provide uni-directional motion when engaged. The inserter includes a rack, pinion, and cam system designed to secure an implant and release an implant in-situ. The reducer includes a geared system for persuading together surgical components and aligning misaligned vertebrae.

An apparatus and method is disclosed for securing tissue to a bone comprising a novel screw anchor for insertion into a bone by a novel rotational driver. The screw anchor and rotation driver enables the screw to be completely embedded into the bone while permitting a suture to be threaded through a transverse aperture in the screw. The rotation driver facilitates insertion and engagement of a capture with one of a series of protuberance formed along a length of a suture. In addition, the method is disclosed of forming the series of protuberance.

Multi-function driver instruments and related methods are disclosed herein, e.g., for applying a fastener to a bone anchor. In some embodiments, a single instrument can include features for driving multiple different types of fasteners, independently driving multiple different components of a single fastener assembly, and so forth, with the instrument being switchable between multiple operating modes to select the feature needed for a particular function. The instrument can include features for retaining a fastener to the instrument, e.g., during initial insertion of the fastener.

A dental fixture operation connector is disclosed. The dental fixture operation connector may include a connector body portion, a connector head portion connected to the connector body portion and inserted into an insertion hole formed in an upper end area of a fixture, and an entrance guide portion provided in the connector head portion and guiding entrance of the connector head portion when the connector head portion is inserted into the insertion hole.

A femoral fixation device may include a shaft and a helical thread disposed about the shaft between a first location and a second location along the shaft. The helical thread may include a concave undercut surface. The femoral fixation device may be configured such that, when the femoral fixation device is implanted within a neck and a head of a femoral bone: the first location, the second location, and the helical thread therebetween may be disposed within the head of the femoral bone; the concave undercut surface may be oriented toward a proximal end of the femoral fixation device; and the concave undercut surface may be configured to transmit at least one force from the head of the femoral bone to the neck of the femoral bone.
