摘要:
A system for percutaneous fracture repair of a bone is provided. The system includes a plate having a first feature and a second feature. The first feature and the second feature are spaced apart from each other. The plate defines a longitudinal axis of the plate. The system also includes a first attachment component operably associated with the first feature. The first attachment component cooperates with the bone. The system also includes a second attachment component operably associated with the second feature. The second attachment component is percutaneously inserted into the second feature. The second attachment component is operably associated with the plate to provide a compressive force in the bone. The compressive force has a component of the force in the longitudinal axis. The second attachment component is adapted for cooperation with the bone.

Apparatus (20, 120, 300) and methods for use in the performance of minimally invasive orthopaedic procedures, including apparatus and methods for use in the performance of such procedures under the visualization of an endoscope (22), are herein disclosed. Such procedures include a minimally invasive intramedullary nailing procedure, a minimally invasive bone graft harvesting procedure, a minimally invasive pelvic osteotomy procedure, an orthopaedic implant revision procedure, and a minimally invasive percutaneous bone plating procedure.

An intramedullary nail configured for use in a bone, the nail including at least one bore configured to receive a bone screw. The bore includes at least one member configured to engage the threads of the screw to prevent axial motion of the screw within the bore after application. The member may be integrally formed in the bore or may be a separate member added to the bore. The member may have a variety of cross sectional shapes, such as a rectangular shape, circular shape or a triangular shape.

An intramedullary implantation system includes a nail with a head having a first locking element. A targeting guide includes a tubular body and a bore with first and second open ends. A locking device includes a shaft with a distal end having a non-threaded second locking element such that the locking device has a first angular orientation relative to the tubular body in which the first and second locking elements are engaged to secure the nail to the targeting guide. The locking device has a second angular orientation relative to the tubular body in which the first locking element is disengaged from the second locking element.

A hydrogel bone plate spacer is provided for placement between a bone plate and an underlying bone to form a fracture fixation construct at a bone fracture site. The spacer includes a hydrogel able to absorb fluid from the fracture site.
