This disclosure relates to orthopaedic implant systems and methods for restoring functionality to a bone and/or joint. The implant systems disclosed herein may include a taper locking mechanism to limit or otherwise oppose separation between components and may include one or more flanges adapted to abut an exterior of the bone.

Orthopaedic implant systems including fixation features and methods of repair

This disclosure relates to orthopaedic implant systems and methods for restoring functionality to a joint. The implant systems disclosed herein include offset arrangements that may facilitate conversion of the implant system during a subsequent surgical procedure.

Convertible orthopaedic implant systems and methods

This disclosure relates to orthopaedic implants and methods for repairing bone defects and restoring functionality to a joint. The implants disclosed herein include augment geometries that may approximate a surface contour or bone void along a surgical site and include patterns of peripheral apertures that may be utilized for improved fixation of the implants at the surgical site.

Orthopaedic implants including peripheral

This disclosure relates to shield guide assembly and methods for restoring functionality to a joint. The shield guide assembly disclosed herein include a shield dimensioned to block access through the shield onto an adjacent bone surface region during formation of one or more features along the surgical site.

Shield guide assembly

This disclosure relates to reaming assemblies and methods for repairing bone defects. The reaming assemblies disclosed herein may be utilized for removing bone prior to positioning a graft and/or implant at a surgical site.

Reaming assemblies for preparation of surgical sites

This disclosure relates to surgical devices and methods for repairing bone defects. The defect indicators disclosed herein may be utilized to indicate a precise location of the defect associated with an articular surface of a joint.

Orthopaedic systems and methods for defect indication

The invention is a smoking pipe snuffer and method of operation, the smoking pipe snuffer comprising a heat resistant flexible sheet cut in the shape of an inverted L to denote a foot portion connected to a leg portion, the foot portion is further configured to be removably placed over a smoking pipe's large bowl aperture to removably seal the large bowl aperture and protect a portion of the operator's thumb placed over the flexible sheet from any heat emission from a hollow bowl interior; and the leg portion is further configured to be removably secured between a stem of the smoking pipe and thenar portion of the operator's thumb.

Pipe snuffer and method

This disclosure relates to a graft preparation station and methods for repairing bone defects. The station described herein may be utilized for dimensioning a graft prior to positioning the shaped graft at a surgical site.

Graft preparation station for repairing bone defects

This disclosure relates to a drill assembly and method for preparing a surgical site. The drill assembly disclosed herein may be utilized for removing bone prior to positioning a graft and/or implant at a surgical site.

Drill assembly for preparation of surgical sites

This disclosure relates to assemblies and methods for repairing bone defects. The assemblies disclosed herein may be utilized for determining a dimension of a surgical site and removing bone prior to positioning a graft and/or implant at the surgical site.

Assemblies for preparation of surgical sites

A surgical tensioner and methods for surgical repairs. A tensioner can tension a flexible strand (suture or wire) attached to tissue (for example, graft or bone segments). A tensioner can include an angled tip with a split hole to past-point on a knot and lock the construct during tensioning. A tensioner can include a securing mechanism that can capture a flexible strand and lock it into place.

Cerclage suture tensioner and methods of tensioning

Orthopaedic implants including peripheral aperture arrangements

This disclosure relates to a defect gauge instrument and method for repairing bone defects. The defect gauge instrument disclosed herein may be utilized to determine one or more characteristics of a bone defect prior to positioning a graft and/or implant at a surgical site.
