The present disclosure provides an apparatus comprising a wire having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. A first portion of the wire including the first end comprises a malleable region that is configured to remain deformed after bending, and a second portion of the wire including the second end comprises a superelastic region that is configured to return to a straight configuration after bending.

Variable stiffness hammertoe k-wire and methods for use

A multi-staple inserter and drill guide, and methods of use thereof, are disclosed therein. The orthopedic staples can also be used in addition to interfragmentary screws to apply further compression of the bone fragments.

Orthopedic staple insertion

This disclosure relates to systems and methods for repairing bone deformities. The systems may include one or more guides for positioning instruments relative to bones and/or joints.

Guide systems and methods for lapidus fusion

A bone plate according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, inter alia, a body portion. The body portion includes a first slotted portion extending at least partially through the body portion and a plurality of teeth adjacent the first slotted portion for engaging a driver in the first slotted portion. The body portion also includes a second slotted portion extending at least partially through the body portion and a ramped portion at least partially surrounding the second slotted portion. The ramped portion tapers from an outer surface of the body portion toward an inner surface of the body portion.

Bone compression plate

Variable stiffness hammertoe K-wire and methods for use

A delivery device delivers a compression plate to a fracture line in a bone. The delivery device includes a body that retains the compression plate in a strained condition, the body including a proximal end, a distal end, and a first beam. The delivery device also includes a cover plate attached to and moveable relative to the body, the cover plate including a second beam. A space is defined between the first beam and the second beam that receives the compression plate. The delivery device also includes a compression clip that retains the compression plate in the space.

Device for implanting compression plate within a body

Drill guides allow an implant to be partially inserted after the holes are drilled and before the drill guide has been removed from the surgical location.

Surgical drill guide

Drill guides are disclosed herein that allow an implant to be partially inserted after the holes are drilled and before the drill guide has been removed from the surgical location.

Surgical techniques, instruments and systems for bone fusions and repairs (for example, phalangeal fusion) which allow alignment of small bones (for example, phalanges) without the use of guidewire and cannulated instrumentation such as, for example, drills and drivers, and cannulated screws. A drill/driver hybrid instrument (a combined drill/driver device) may be used in fusion of two small bones (for example, in interphalangeal fusion). One end of the hybrid instrument is provided with a plurality of flutes so that the instrument can be used as a drill to remove bone. The other end is shaped to mate with a device to be inserted intraarticularly (for example, interphalangeally), acting as a driver for that device.

Drill/driver hybrid instrument for interphalangeal fusion

The present invention is a game, as a board game or computer game, relating to visualization and completion of geometric shapes. Repeating geometric shapes appear on a game board. The geometric shapes share perimeter boundaries with other geometric shapes on the game board. Game pieces are provided that correspond to a portion of the perimeter of one or more geometric forms. Players place game pieces on the game board, completing the geometric shapes.
