An endovascular implant detachment mechanism is disclosed that can include an endovascular implant, a connector, a push wire, and one or more lock wires. The connector can be attached to a pinched end of the implant and can include an aperture at a second end. The connector can include a generally circular cavity distal to the aperture. The push wire can have a distal end including one or more slotted openings and configured to fit into the aperture in a first orientation. The one or more lock wires can be configured to fit into the aperture while the distal end of the push wire is in a second orientation. Axial rotation of the push wire can cause the distal end of the push wire to move from the first orientation into the second orientation and secure the push wire to the implant.

Twister implant detachment mechanism

An occlusive device can include a segment including an open end and a proximal end. The occlusive device can include a push wire that is positioned proximal of the proximal end. The occlusive device can include a detachment feature that is attached to the push wire via a detachment groove. The occlusive device can include a sleeve surrounding the push wire. In a non-deployed configuration, the sleeve can surround the detachment feature and prevent release of the proximal end of the segment from the push wire. In a deployed configuration, the proximal end can be flush with a proximal end of the spherical cavity.

Braided implant with detachment mechanism

A surgical instrument assembly configured to display a representation of the surgical instrument relative to a trajectory (e.g., a desired trajectory for drilling into an implant) based image data from an image sensor (e.g., a camera). For example, the surgical instrument assembly may be configured to determine a desired trajectory (e.g., a central axis of a distal hole of an intramedullary nail) based on X-ray image data representing at least one fiducial marker (e.g., an array of ArUco markers) and representing an anatomical structure and/or an implant. The surgical instrument assembly may in real time display a representation of the orientation and/or position of the surgical instrument (e.g., the orientation and position of a drill bit of the surgical instrument) in relation to the desired trajectory based on image sensor data that is generated based on an orientation of the at least one fiducial marker detected by an image sensor.
