A drill guide arm for providing guidance for placement of a bone tunnel, while protecting against trauma. The guide arm includes a first arm at a proximal end connected at an angle to a second arm, the second arm extending to a distal end. The angle can be within the range of 80°-110°. The second arm extends along a first axis. The guide arm also includes a distal tip extending at a second angle from the second arm at the distal end, and an indicator feature extending from the distal tip toward the first arm. The indicator feature extends along a second axis, the second axis being substantially parallel to the first axis. The guide arm can also include a shield feature of the distal tip. The shield feature has a width wider than the remainder of the distal tip.

Multifunctional PCL guide arm

A device and system for inserting and impacting bone dowel allografts or bone chips into a bone tunnel. The surgical impacting system includes a surgical tamp having a proximal end and a distal end with an elongated shaft extending therebetween. The surgical tamp has an inner channel extending therethrough from the proximal end to the distal end. The distal end of the surgical tamp can have a distal tip. The surgical tamp may have a handle at the proximal end or a proximal tip at the proximal end. The surgical tamp may also have one or more slots extending through the exterior surface of the elongated shaft and into the inner channel. The surgical tamp can be configured for insertion into a delivery tube. The delivery tube serves the purpose of containing a bone dowel or bone chips therein for smooth insertion into the joint.

Ligament revision system

A drill guide arm for providing guidance for placement of a bone tunnel, while protecting against trauma. The guide arm includes a first arm at a proximal end connected at an angle to a second arm, the second arm extending to a distal end. The angle can be within the range of 80&#xb0;-110&#xb0;. The second arm extends along a first axis. The guide arm also includes a distal tip extending at a second angle from the second arm at the distal end, and an indicator feature extending from the distal tip toward the first arm. The indicator feature extends along a second axis, the second axis being substantially parallel to the first axis. The guide arm can also include a shield feature of the distal tip. The shield feature has a width wider than the remainder of the distal tip.
