An apparatus for indicating the position and length of a bone tunnel, including a first member configured to couple with a drill guide; and a second member in spaced relation to the first member, the second member comprising an indicator configured to provide an indication of thickness of a boney member with the first member disposed on a first side of the boney member and the second member disposed on a second side of the boney member.

Indicating position and length of a bone tunnel and implementations thereof

A handheld medical device with a distal implement is disclosed. The handheld rotary medical device may include an inner drive shaft, an elongated, tubular, outer housing encapsulating the inner drive shaft such that the inner drive shaft is positioned within the outer housing. The inner drive shaft may include one or more inner drive shaft bendable sections, and the outer housing may include one or more outer housing bendable sections. The inner drive shaft bendable section may be heated to anneal the material forming the inner drive shaft bendable section such that during use the inner drive shaft bendable section may be bent into a desired position and, once bent, the inner drive shaft bendable section remains in the desired position and does not bind against the elongated, tubular, outer housing.

Bendable handheld medical actuator

This disclosure relates to surgical tools and methods. The surgical tools can include a handle, which includes an outer surface. A first rod extends from the handle and includes a first lumen. A second rod extends from the handle and includes a second lumen. A first set of suture cleating channels are formed in the outer surface. A second set of suture cleating channels are formed in the outer surface and spaced apart from the first set of suture cleating channels.

Surgical tools and associated graft augmentation techniques

Surgical constructs, assemblies and methods for tissue reinforcement with a reinforcement (reinforcing) material such as suture, tape, weave, ribbon or mesh, among many others. The reinforced construct includes a reinforced section that prevents a suture from pulling apart. The reinforced section is be a piece of material (a reinforcement or reinforcing material) such as reinforced stitched suture tape attached to a flexible strand. A needle attached to the flexible strand terminating with the reinforced section passes through a proximal end of the reinforced section to form an adjustable 'starter loop.' The starter loop is slid and positioned over tissue (for example, graft, tendon, ligament, etc.) and the suture is pulled apart to tighten the loop around the tissue.
