Abstract: A blade-plate assembly for performing an osteotomy procedure is disclosed. The blade-plate assembly may include a modular blade component configured to be coupled to either a Varus plate component or a Valgus plate component when performing the osteotomy procedure. In some embodiments, the modular blade component includes a support portion and a blade portion that extends outwardly in perpendicular relation to the support portion. The blade portion defines a channel configured to permit passage of a guide wire when performing the osteotomy procedure.

Abstract: A orthopedic/spine bone mill comprising a vessel and a rotatable grinding tool to produce ground autologous and or allograft bone particles for surgical bone reconstruction use, wherein the vessel includes a wall defining a circular cylindrical chamber having a concentric axis. The vessel further includes generally concave or a cup shaped bottom wall which corresponds to the shape of the cutting blade and a lid adapted to be removably connected to the vessel. The lid includes an opening coincident with the axis. The grinding tool includes an elongated shaft extending through the opening in the Jid along the axis with a cutting blade mounted to the shaft within the chamber whereby the cutting blade can be rotated by motive device, such as a drill find in the operating room, engaging the shaft exterior of the vessel to cut bone, placed in the vessel, into said bone particles.

Abstract: A mobile dynamic implantable spinal apparatus comprising at least one fixed bracket secured on a correcting rod and at least one mobile carrier slidably mounted on the correcting rod. The fixed bracket and the mobile carrier each include a body and a pedicle screw or a transverse process hook articulated to the body. The distribution of the degrees of freedom between the carrier and the rod, and the pedicle screws or hooks and the carrier and the fixed bracket provide a non-rigid assembly which preserves some of the natural mobility of the vertebrae and disk, and the potential growth of the spinal column.

Abstract: An intramedullary nail system includes a telescopic nail assembly for use in fixation of long bone fractures. The nail assembly includes a female hollow nail that is attached to the proximal cortex of the femur, and a male solid nail that is attached to the distal cortex. Anchorage of the telescopic nail assembly is achieved through screw type fixation. The intramedullary nail system has a built-in feature that allows for extension of its length as bone structures heal and normal patient growth occurs, which is particularly advantageous to be used for children above two years of age and below 65 kilograms of body weight.
