An orthopaedic surgical instrument may include an elongated body with a broach end and an impactor end. The body may be straight or curved. A latch lever may be pivotally coupled to the elongated body. The latch lever may be moveable between an open position and a latched position in which the latch lever is retained within the body. A surgical broach may be rigidly attached to the broach end of the elongated body. An automated surgical impactor may be attached to the impactor end.

Straight and curved femoral broach impactor adapters

An apparatus, system, and method for extracting an orthopaedic broach from a bone of a patient comprises an orthopaedic broach extraction tool having a pair of jaws that are operable to secure the orthopaedic broach extraction tool to the orthopaedic broach. Once secured, the orthopaedic broach extraction tool can be used to facilitate extraction of the orthopaedic broach from the patient's bone using, for example, a reverse impaction tool.

A femoral finishing rasp assembly for use in an orthopaedic surgical procedure includes a femoral finishing rasp and an impactor adaptor. The femoral finishing rasp includes femoral-facing anterior and posterior surfaces, each of which includes a corresponding set of rasping teeth. The impactor adaptor is configured to couple to an exterior surface of the femoral finishing rasp and to an orthopaedic impactor to facilitate the use of the femoral finishing rasp on a distal end of a patient's surgically-prepared femur. A method for performing an orthopaedic surgical procedure using the femoral finishing rasp assembly is also disclosed.

An orthopaedic surgical instrument may include an elongated body with an implant end and an impactor end. A latch lever may be pivotally coupled to the elongated body. The latch lever may be moveable between an open position and a latched position in which the latch lever is retained within the body. An acetabular shell component may be rigidly attached to the implant end of the elongated body. An automated surgical impactor may be attached to the impactor end.

In general, orthopedic instrument adapters and methods of using orthopedic instrument adapters are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, an adapter is configured to releasably attach to an end effector configured to impact bone. The end effector can be a broach, chisel, or other surgical implement. The adapter includes a spring-loaded hook that is configured to releasably seat in a cut-out formed in the end effector. The adapter is also configured to releasably attach to a surgical impacting tool, such as an orthopedic impactor, configured to drive impacting of the end effector relative to bone.

Orthopedic instrument adapters

An orthopaedic surgical instrument system includes a tibial base trial and a tibial bearing trial. The tibial bearing trial is installed on the tibial base trial from the anterior side of the patient's tibia during an orthopaedic surgical procedure.
