An orthopaedic surgical instrument assembly includes a hemispherical component having a convex outer surface extending from a circular rim to an apex point, and a plurality of cutting teeth extending outwardly from the outer surface between the circular rim and the apex point. Each cutting tooth of the plurality of cutting teeth includes an elongated cutting edge that is positioned on an arced imaginary line of a plurality of arced imaginary lines extending outwardly from the apex point of the hemispherical component. A method of manufacturing an orthopaedic surgical instrument assembly is also disclosed.

Orthopaedic surgical instrument assembly for reaming a patient's acetabulum

A surgical instrument assembly includes a metallic hemispherical component and a driver component removably coupled to the hemispherical component. The metallic hemispherical component has a convex outer surface configured to engage a patient's natural acetabulum, a concave inner surface positioned opposite the outer surface and defining a cavity in the hemispherical component, a plurality of cutting teeth extending outwardly from the outer surface, and a plurality of apertures defined in the inner surface. The driver component has a shank and a plurality of ribs secured to, and extending outwardly from, the shank. Each rib has a tab that is received in a corresponding aperture of the hemispherical component to secure the driver component to the hemispherical component.

Orthopaedic surgical method and instrument assembly for reaming a patient's acetabulum

An orthopaedic surgical instrument system for use in preparing a patient's bone is disclosed. The surgical instrument includes a cutting guide block configured to be secured to a surgically-prepared surface of the patient's bone, and a cutting tool to be used in conjunction with the cutting guide block to resect a section of the patient's bone. A method of performing an orthopaedic surgery is also disclosed.

Surgical cutting instruments and methods of use are described. The surgical cutting instrument () comprises an instrument body () with a first attachment mechanism () at a distal end. A cutter () has a central core (), a plurality of cutting formations () and a plurality of lobes () extending from the central core. The central core has side walls () which define an entirely open mouth and the side walls include a second attachment mechanism () which can interact with the first attachment mechanism to releasably attach the cutter to the distal end of the instrument body. At least one cutting formation () is provided on an end outer face () of the cutter opposite the entirely open mouth.

An instrument for preparing an acetabulum. The instrument includes a handle having a reamer coupling feature and a trial coupling feature. The instrument further includes an acetabular reamer having an outer cutting surface and an inner concave surface having an apex. The acetabular reamer has a first handle coupling feature located at the apex adapted to couple to the reamer coupling feature of the handle. A trial having an outer convex surface having an apex is also included. The outer convex surface adapted to fit inside the inner concave surface of the acetabular reamer. The trial has a second handle coupling feature located at the apex of the outer convex surface adapted to couple to the trial coupling feature of the handle.

Grater and trial liner

Surgical instruments and methods for use in implanting a modular femoral prosthesis during performance of a hip revision procedure are disclosed, and include a distal reamer operable to ream an intramedullary canal of a patient's femur during a surgical procedure. The distal reamer includes an elongated shank having a cutting head formed in a distal end of the elongated shank and a drive connector formed in a sidewall positioned at an opposite, proximal end of the elongated shank. The cutting head has a plurality of helical cutting flutes arranged in a geometry that corresponds with the geometry of the distal stem component. The drive connector has a female drive socket and a number of locking slots formed in the sidewall so as to open into the female drive socket.
