Abstract: A screw for osteosynthesis includes a body, a thread, and a driver receiving cavity. The body includes a proximal end and a distal end, and the body defines a central longitudinal axis that extends between the proximal end and the distal end. The thread is disposed along at least a portion of the body. The driver receiving cavity is at the proximal end of the body, and the driver receiving cavity includes at least five lobes circumferentially spaced apart from one another about the central longitudinal axis to define at least five grooves. Each one of the at least five lobes defines a different internal lobular area. The at least five grooves can be configured to receive six lobes of a hexalobular driver having equally spaced lobes.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques can be used to perform an osteotomy on a bone of a foot, to realign a cut bone portion relative to an adjacent bone portion, and/or to fixate a moved position of the cut bone portion relative to the adjacent bone portion for fusion. In some examples, the disclosed devices and techniques can be used as part of a metatarsal correction procedure in which a metatarsal is treated to correct a bunion deformity.

Abstract: A variety of surgical procedures may be performed on the bones of the foot, such as on one or more lesser metatarsals of the foot positioned laterally of the first metatarsal. For example, a surgical procedure may involve cutting an end of one or both of a second metatarsal and an intermediate cuneiform and/or cutting an end of one or both of a third metatarsal and a lateral cuneiform. The tarsometatarsal joints defined be one or both sets of bones may be cut to treat an arthritic joint, metatarsus adductus, and/or other clinical condition. In any case, various surgical instruments can be utilized during a procedure to help increase the accuracy and repeatability of the procedure patient-to-patient, improving overall patient outcomes and making it less invasive. For example, one or more cut guides having tissue control features may be utilized during procedure.
