Jun 29, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/538617

Inventors:

Aaron J. Matyas - Fort Wayne IN, US
Stephen Bennett - Huntington IN, US
Kyle D. Steffe - Warsaw IN, US

International Classification:

A61B 17/56

US Classification:

606 86 R

Abstract:

An orthopaedic surgical instrument includes an anchor configured to be coupled to a prosthetic tibial component, a shaft coupled to the anchor, and a separator coupled to the shaft. The separator is configured to move along the shaft between a first position in which the separator is spaced apart from the prosthetic tibial component and a second position in which the separator is positioned between the tibial tray and the sleeve of the prosthetic tibial component.

International Classification:

A61F 2/38
A61F 2/46

Abstract:

An orthopaedic prosthesis system includes a femoral component configured to be attached to a distal end of a patient's femur. A tibial tray is configured to be attached to a proximal end of a patient's tibia. A tibial insert is configured to be positioned between the femoral component and the tibial tray. An elongated pin rotatably couples the tibial insert to the femoral component.

International Classification:

A61B 17/92
A61F 2/46
A61F 2/38

Abstract:

An orthopaedic surgical instrument for use in disassembling an orthopaedic prosthesis includes a main component, a rod, and a spindle. The main component has a housing and an elongated body extending from the housing with a passageway is defined in the elongated body. The rod has an elongated shaft, with a greater length than the elongated body, extending from the head of the rod and configured to pass through the main component. The spindle threads into the housing to move the rod along a longitudinal axis.
