Abstract: An acetabular cup extractor is provided that is designed for extracting medical device implants. The acetabular cup extractor includes a fastener for securing to an implant and a cutting assembly. The cutting assembly further includes a blade spaced and movably connected to the fastener and a handle operatively connected to the blade.
Abstract: An implant extractor including a shaft body and a telescoping push rod extending from the shaft body. An adjustor is engaged with the telescoping push rod for adjusting a length of the telescoping push rod. A support arm extends laterally away from the shaft body and a jaw assembly extends from the support arm. The jaw assembly includes a jaw moveable between a locking position and an unlocking position, and a rocker arm operatively engaged with the telescoping push rod and the jaw. The implant extractor provides a line of force spaced from and substantially parallel to an implant to be extracted. As a consequence, there is substantial clearance for an extension handle such as a C-frame or the like which is oftentimes needed to dislodge the implant from surrounding bone. In addition, the implant extractor is capable of gripping a wide range of sizes of hip stem implant trunnions.

Abstract: An implant extractor that includes an elongated body having a proximal end for attachment to an extraction device, a first arm extending from the elongated body, and a second arm pivotably connected to the first arm. The second arm includes a moment arm for generating a torque about a distal end of the second arm. The implant extractor further includes a force applicator operatively connected to the first arm and the moment arm to apply a force to one or more of the first and second arms.
Abstract: A surgical tool including a handle having a grip with a proximal end, a distal end and a through-bore, a coupler coupled to the distal end of the grip, a plunger slidably positioned within the through-bore of the grip, and a biasing member in the through-bore of the grip to bias the plunger distally into the coupler; and a bit releasably coupled to the coupler of the handle.
Abstract: A chuck assembly for a medical device is provided. The chuck assembly includes a mounting base structured to couple to a tool; a housing coupled to the mounting base; and a cam sleeve within the housing and movable with respect to the housing between a locked position and an unlocked position, the cam sleeve having an annular base, an arm extending from the annular base, and a cam extending laterally from the arm.

Abstract: A surgical cement removal tool including an elongated shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, and a bowl-shaped scoop affixed to the distal end. Handle attachment structure can be provided adjacent the proximal end of the elongated shaft to permit releasable attachment of the surgical cement removal tool to a handle. Alternatively, the proximal end of the elongated shaft may be permanently affixed to a suitable handle.
Abstract: A power adapter includes an adapter shaft having a first end for coupling to a rotary tool and a second end configured to be coupled to a working tool. Additionally, the second end includes a slot. The power adapter also includes a locking mechanism operatively coupled to the second end of the adapter shaft. The locking mechanism includes a dowel pin movable between a first position and a second position within the slot.
Abstract: A surgical hammer that includes a handle, a shaft extending from the handle and a hammer head connected to the shaft. The hammer head includes a slot extending through the hammer head and in fluid communication with a distal end of the hammer head, a first internal cavity within the hammer head spaced laterally from the slot, and a second internal cavity within the hammer head spaced laterally from the slot.
