Abstract: Aspects of present disclosures involve systems, methods, and apparatus for a bone mounted robotic-assisted orthopedic surgery system for precise implant position, soft tissue balancing, and guidance of tools during a surgical procedure, particularly partial or total knee replacement procedure. The system features a bone-mounted robotic arm with an end-effector for precise positioning of a surgical tool, positioning of implants, and balancing of soft tissues. The reconfigurable robotic system requires minimal training by surgeons, is intuitive to use similar to conventional instrumented surgery, and has a small footprint. The system works with existing, conventional instruments, patient-specific instruments, sensor-assisted systems, and computer-assisted systems and does not require increased surgical time and safely provides the enhanced precision achievable by robotic-assisted systems and computer-assisted technologies.

Abstract: Aspects of present disclosures involve systems, methods, computer program products for creating a customized MIS spine guide using two-dimensional imaging. In particular, the present disclosure provides a method of creating customized implant or instrument trajectory guide using one or more two-dimensional (2D) images of the patient's vertebrae. The method for creating a customized MIS spine guide using two-dimensional imaging generally includes receiving a plurality of two-dimensional images of the patient's vertebrae from an imaging device, reformatting the two-dimensional images for surgical planning and creating a customized MIS spine guide from the 2D images, design a jig based at least on the placement of the mating shapes within the plurality of reformatted two-dimensional images by the computing device, and creating a customized spine guide using a milling machine or 3D printing device corresponding to the machine program.
