  • METHOD AND DEVICES FOR MINIMALLY INVASIVE ARTHROSCOPIC PROCEDURES
    Publication number: 20150005578
    Abstract: A surgical device is provided, the device having a tubular outer body member with a handle at its proximal end and a flexible distal end segment extending from its distal end. The surgical device also has an operable end extending from the distal end of the flexible distal end segment. The device is configured for selectively causing the flexible end segment to bend to adopt a desired curvature and for selectively rotating the operable end relative to the flexible distal end segment about an axis of the flexible distal end segment.
    Type: Application

  • Method and Devices for Minimally Invasive Arthroscopic Procedures
    Publication number: 20080221392
    Abstract: A device with a flexible member configured to take on a curvilinear profile can be used to perform arthroscopic procedures. The device can be used to perform such procedures through two access ports, providing visualization and access to the entire site of the procedure, e.g. hip joint, without switching cannulated access portals or providing additional access portals.
