System and Method for Revision Hip Surgery
20230010852 · 2023-01-12 ·

A system and method for identifying and digitally displaying a femoral implant during hip revision surgery to guide a surgeon in detaching the femoral implant from the femur. Some embodiments include digitally registering a portion of the exposed femoral implant to create a representative point set. The system then digitally overlays a medical image of the implant and/or a 3-dimensional model of the femoral implant. Some embodiments further include a surgical tracking system configured to track a surgical cutting tool. Moreover, the system visually illustrates the cutting path of the surgical tool to convey to the surgeon where the surgeon has already cut and where the surgeon needs to cut in order to fully detach the femoral implant from the bone.

Arthroscopic tool for labrum repair procedure and a method for use thereof

An arthroscopic tool for labrum repair procedure, including: a cannulated working channel having a proximal end and a distal end; and a holding element adapted to be attached to the proximal end of the working channel for supporting a labrum during an arthroscopic labrum repair procedure.

A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FACILITATING OSTEOTOMY OF THE PELVIC
20230233239 · 2023-07-27 ·

A surgical implant system includes a surgical implant and at least one fixation device. The surgical implant includes a first side member, a second side member, a distal member and a proximal member. The first side member is disposed in opposed relation relative to the second side member, the first and second side members including distal and proximal ends. The distal member is disposed in opposed, spaced relation relative to the proximal member. The distal member extends across one end of the surgical implant between the first and second side member connecting distal ends of the first and second side members. The proximal member extends across a second end of the surgical implant connecting the proximal ends of the first and second side members. The fixation device is inserted in and advanced through osseous tissue and traverses the openings of the first and second side members.

Spring-Fit Surgical Guides

Various embodiments of devices, systems, and methods for surgical procedures, including spring-fit guides for improved guidance of surgical instruments, are disclosed.

Surgical guide system

A surgical guide system for guiding a surgical tool, comprising a body which comprises a first contact surface profiled to locate with a first anatomical surface of a first bone; and a second contact surface profiled to locate with a second anatomical surface of a second bone; wherein the body is configured, for a specified functional position of the first bone relative to the second bone, to simultaneously: locate the first contact surface with the first anatomical surface; locate the second contact surface with the second anatomical surface; and receive, or guide, a first fastener to fasten to the first bone, wherein at least one of the body and/or the first fastener forms a first reference to guide a first surgical tool to the first bone.

DEVICES AND METHODS FOR ORIENTING A SURGICAL DEVICE

Devices and methods are provided that simplify and improve placement of stabilizing orthopedic pins, wires, and/or screws in the pelvis in minimally invasive surgery. Provided is a surgical instrument guide containing an adjustable friction clamp for positioning and securing a cannula, and a probe with a blunt, nonpenetrating tip. The probe and a surgical instrument held by the friction clamp are oriented at right angles to one another. In use, the blunt probe is introduced through a small incision and advanced by blunt dissection until the blunt tip is positioned at a desired anatomical landmark on the surface of the pelvis. A cannula inserted through the friction clamp is advanced until the tip of the cannula is within 2 cm of the blunt tip of the probe; an orthopedic pin, wire, and/or screw can then be inserted through the cannula to provide stabilization. The blunt probe may be cannulated.

Fastening device for acquiring bone marrow aspirate
11589847 · 2023-02-28 · ·

The invention involves a device and method for acquiring bone marrow aspirate. The system includes an elongated cannulated fastener having a threaded end for attachment to a bone. The threaded portion includes a directional aperture sized to allow marrow to be drawn into the cannula. The directional aperture also allows the user to direct the aperture in a desired direction within the bone for acquisition of the marrow. The distal end of the cannulated fastener includes a connector which may be in the form of a Luer lock to allow vacuum to be applied to the cannula for drawing the marrow into a syringe or the like.

IMPLANTED ARTICLE PHYSICAL REFERENCING APPARATUS

An implanted article physical referencing apparatus comprises a guide body, a first guide shaft and a second guide shaft. The guide body includes a plurality of guide shaft receptacles therein. A longitudinal axis of each of the guide shaft receptacles extends substantially parallel to a longitudinal reference axis of the guide body. The first and second guide shafts each have a proximate end portion and a distal end portion. The proximate end portion of the first guide shaft includes an exterior surface adapted for being engaged with a corresponding interior surface of a selected one of the guide shaft receptacles to constrain unrestricted relative movement between the first guide shaft and the guide body. The proximate end portion of the second guide shaft is attached to the guide body. A longitudinal axis of the second guide shaft extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal reference axis of the guide body.
