This disclosure relates to orthopaedic implant systems and methods for repairing bone defects and restoring functionality to a joint. The implant systems and methods disclosed herein may include augments extending from respective baseplates. The augments may have an internal network for communicating material in the respective implant.

Orthopaedic implant systems including internal networks and methods of repair

A graft includes a biological graft. An embroidered textile supports the biological graft. Sutures attach the biological graft and the embroidered textile together.

This disclosure details a surgical system and method for changing one or more dimensions of harvested tissue, such an autograft, which is harvested from one location in a patient's body and used for a surgical repair or reconstruction procedure in another location in the patient's body. An example surgical system includes a first press component defining a cavity configured to receive harvested tissue, and a second press component including a projection insertable into the cavity. Further, at least one of the first and second press components are made of a transparent or semi-transparent material such that when harvested tissue is in the cavity and when the projection is inserted into the cavity, the harvested tissue is visible through at least one of the first and second press components.

Surgical system and method for changing dimension of harvested tissue

An exemplary method includes fixating a first suture anchor in a first bone. The first suture anchor has a resilient member and a flexible strand attached to the resilient member. The flexible strand is passed to a second suture anchor, and tensioned. The second suture anchor is fixated in a second bone to secure the flexible strand to the second bone.

Suture anchor systems with spring loaded suture anchors

Graft compression and sizing tubes, methods of graft sizing and compression using such graft tubes, and kits of graft tubes are disclosed. A graft tube aids in graft preparation for a surgery by quickly and consistently compressing a graft to a desired diameter and measuring the length of the graft.

Graft compression and sizing tubes

The disclosure relates to surgical tools and methods. The surgical tools can include a handle, a first rod extending from the handle, and a second rod extending from the handle. At least one of the first and second rods may be rotatable between a folded position and a spread position. The first and second rods may be closer together in the folded position than in the spread position.

Surgical tools and joint kinematic reconstruction techniques

Techniques, mixtures, mixing and delivery kits, and improved delivery instruments for implantation of micronized allograft tissue over a microfractured defect. Allograft cartilage tissue is delivered over a cartilage defect that has been debrided and microfractured, without the need for a periosteal covering or separate type of patch sewn over the top. The allograft tissue may be any micronized cartilage particulates obtained by various methods, for example, cartilage delivered in its native form, dehydrated via lyophilization, 'freeze-dried,' dehydrated via desiccation, or dehydrated by any other method.

Implantation of micronized allograft tissue over a microfractured defect

An exemplary suture anchor system includes a first suture anchor having a central axis, a distal end portion, a proximal end portion, and an internal passage extending along the central axis between the distal end portion and the proximal end portion. The resilient member is at least partially external to the internal passage, and a flexible strand is connected to the resilient member. An exemplary method includes fixating a spring loaded first suture anchor in a first bone, passing a flexible strand from the spring loaded first suture anchor to a second suture anchor, and fixating the second suture anchor in a second bone.

A method for repairing a cartilage defect according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, preparing a cartilage defect for implantation of a cartilage graft and attaching the cartilage graft to bone using at least one knotless suture anchor.

Method of repairing cartilage defects

This disclosure describes a combined autologous biologic and cold therapy treatment for treating various skin injuries. The treatment may include applying autologous blood components, including but not limited to platelet rich plasma, to a skin injury in a manner that influences the healing process. A tray assembly for freezing autologous blood components includes a tray body and a plurality of compartments formed in the tray body. Each of the plurality of compartments is configured to receive an individual dose of an autologous blood component.

Combined autologous biologic and cold therapy treatment of skin injuries

A fenestrated suture anchor for fixation of tissue to bone. In a preferred embodiment, the suture includes an implant, such a swivel implant with a forked tip for capturing suture. The implant is secured in a hole in bone by advancing a fixation device, such as a cannulated interference screw, to engage and fully seat the implant. The cannulated fixation device is provided with a plurality of openings or fenestrations of various dimensions and geometries to provide multiple pathways through the anchor (i.e., though the interior of the body and through the fenestrations) to allow blood to flow to increase the healing zone, for example, for rotator cuff repair, while also promoting bone in-growth.

Method for knotless fixation of tissue with swivel anchor

This present invention relates to medical procedures and force application distraction devices for internal joint distraction.
