摘要:
A cup impactor (1, 1′, 1″) is provided, adapted to assist a surgeon in controlling implantation of a cup prosthesis (9). The impactor has an impactor body (8), a drive train assembly (71), an impactor nose (38), and a clamping handle (5). The impactor body (8) has on its proximal end, an impaction plate (7) connected thereto, and an impactor handle (6) formed thereon for handling by the surgeon and, on the distal end, an impactor cup support portion (8a) having a receiver recess (8b) therein. A drive train assembly (71) has a prosthesis engaging interface (11) at a distal end thereof, and a proximal end on which a positioning knob (2) is formed. The assembly (71) received and rotatably mounted in the receiver recess (8b) of the body (8) so as to expose the prosthesis engaging surface (11). An impactor nose (38) mounts on the distal end of the impactor body (8), through which the prosthesis engaging interface (11) extends. A clamping handle (5) pulls distal portion of the drive train assembly (71) and therefore any cup prosthesis (9) attached to the engaging interface (11) against the impactor nose (38) so as not to strain the proximal end of the drive train assembly (71).

An interbody device may include a main body and an arm movably connected thereto. The device may have a first end, a second end opposite the first end in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the device, a first side, a second side opposite the first side in a direction of a first transverse axis of the device, a third side, and a fourth side opposite the third side in a direction of a second transverse axis of the device. An overall distance between the first side and the second side may increase along at least a majority of a length of the device in a direction from the first end toward the second end, and an overall distance between the third side and the fourth side may increase along at least a majority of the length in a direction from the second end toward the first end.

The invention proposes a device for maintaining an intervertebral space, said device being capable of being accommodated inside the disc, in place of the core, of ensuring its natural anchoring by promoting the regrowth of fibre around at least part of the device, of limiting the possibility of ejection of the residual core in order to avoid a renewed hernia, and of ensuring the mobility of the vertebral column. To this end, a subject of the invention is a device (100) comprising at least two non-expansible concentric rings (110-111) which between them form a free space (120) and which are connected to each other via two junction summits (130-140).

A surgical instrument includes a shaft having a distal end connectable with an implant, and a handle connected to a proximal end of the shaft. The instrument defines an internal fluid channel through which a fluid can be passed. A kit includes the instrument and a spinal implant that is expandable through the introduction of the fluid therein. A method of using the instrument includes passing a fluid through an internal fluid channel defined by the instrument and toward the implant.

Methods and devices are provided for anchoring a ligament or tendon to bone. In one embodiment, a biceps tenodesis system is provided and includes a sheath inserter tool, an expandable sheath configured to couple to the sheath inserter tool, an expander inserter tool, and an expander configured to couple to the expander inserter tool. The sheath inserter tool is configured to advance the expandable sheath, with a tendon disposed therearound, into a bone hole, and the expander inserter tool is configured to advance the expander through an outer shaft of the sheath inserter tool and to drive the expander into the sheath. The expander is configured to be received within a lumen extending at least partially through the expandable sheath to thereby expand the sheath. In this way, the system delivers the tendon or ligament into the bone hole and locks the sheath and tendon within the bone hole.

In an artificial hip joint stem of the present invention, a distance between an inner wall portion and an outer wall portion is decreased as separating from an opening part in a sectional view that is parallel to a stem central axis and includes the inner wall portion and the outer wall portion, and both a front wall portion and a rear wall portion have a planar region in a sectional view that is parallel to the stem central axis and includes the front wall portion and the rear wall portion. A stem inserter of the present invention includes a disk-shaped front end part. The present invention also provides an artificial hip joint system including the artificial hip joint stem and the stem inserter, and an artificial hip joint including the artificial hip joint stem.
摘要:
A kit of surgical instruments for removing a spinal implant (170) from the intervertebral disc space between two adjacent vertebrae and an anchor (150) engaged with the implant and an adjacent vertebra, the kit comprising: a removal tool (700) having an engagement portion and a handle portion (770), the engagement portion including a superior surface, an inferior surface, a distal engagement surface (712) for interfacing with the implant, and a track on at least one of the superior and inferior surfaces for slidably translating the anchor (150) away from the engagement surface; and an anchor remover (400) slidably engageable with the removal tool in contact with the anchor to pull the anchor from engagement with the implant and the adjacent vertebra.
