A bone displacement system includes an anchoring portion, a tool engaging portion, a compression distraction mechanism, a lateral body and a distal body. The anchoring portion has an aperture for receiving a wire to connect the anchoring portion to a proximal bone. The tool engaging portion is connected to the anchoring portion and is configured to connect a tool thereto. The compression-distraction mechanism is connected to the anchoring portion. The lateral body is connected to the compression-distraction mechanism by a ratchet. The lateral body has a downwardly depending portion for contacting a lateral bone. The distal body is connected to the compression-distraction mechanism. The distal body has an aperture for receiving a wire to connect the distal body to a distal bone. The compression-distraction mechanism is configured to move the anchoring portion relative to the distal body.

Bone align and joint preparation device and method

A system for fixating a bone includes a buckle having a plurality of lock bars and a hook. A cord may connect the hook with an opposite end of the buckle and around a bone. The buckle may include lock bars on the opposite end of the buckle to receive the cord and allow a frictional resistance to a loosening of the cord around the bone to facilitate a reduction of a fracture of the bone.

System and method for bone fixation

A bone displacement system includes an anchoring portion, a tool engaging portion, a compression distraction mechanism, a lateral body and a distal body. The anchoring portion has an aperture for receiving a wire to connect the anchoring portion to a proximal bone. The anchoring portion is connectable to a downwardly depending member for holding a tissue portion. The tool engaging portion is connected to the anchoring portion and is configured to connect a tool thereto. The compression-distraction mechanism is connected to the anchoring portion. The lateral body is connected to the compression-distraction mechanism and engageable with a lateral bone. The distal body is connected to the compression-distraction mechanism. The distal body has an aperture for receiving a wire to connect the distal body to a distal bone. The compression-distraction mechanism is configured to move the anchoring portion relative to the distal body.

An implant having a joint facing surface and a bone facing surface forming a body member and a dorsal member therebetween. The implant further having a ring member extending out from the bone facing surface to a free end disposed for insertion into a bone recess. The body member and the dorsal member include a concave curvature on the bone facing surface and a convex curvature on the joint facing surface.

Joint arthroplasty device and method

A bone cut guide includes a stem having a stem longitudinal axis and an anchoring portion proximal to the stem and connected to the stem by a cut body. The anchoring portion includes an anchoring opening configured to receive a wire therethrough to connect the anchoring portion to a bone. The cut body includes a cut slot configured to receive a saw to cut the bone.

Bone cut guide apparatus and method

An orthopedic instrument assembly for placing an implant into a medial cuneiform of a foot, the assembly includes a targeting guide having a body with an elongated linear base. A threaded rack is disposed along the elongated linear base. A compression-distraction frame pre-compresses the joint prior to placement of a joint fixation element. The compression-distraction frame is translatably connected to the rack of the guide body base. The compression-distraction frame is releasably, statically connectable to a first metatarsal bone and a post. The post has a generally cylindrical shape and a longitudinal axis, and has a plurality of threaded cylindrical bores disposed therethrough at predefined angles relative to the longitudinal axis. The post is releasably, statically connectable to the targeting guide.
