  • Patent number: 11883027
    Abstract: Various embodiments of a device for deep surgical corridor microvascular anastomosis are described herein. A device, comprising: an elongated body; a rod disposed at least partially within the channel of the elongated body; an actuator in association with the elongated body and the rod, wherein the actuator is operable to actuate the rod in a first axial direction; and a pair of coupling arms in association with the distal portion of the rod, wherein the actuator is operable to actuate the rod in a first axial direction such that the pivotable end of each coupling arm of the pair of coupling arms is consequently actuated in the first axial direction such that the pair of coupling arms are parallel with one another in a closed configuration.

  • Publication number: 20230414310
    Abstract: Various embodiments of a stereotactic coordinate adjuster system and associated method for positional adjustment of components of a stereotactic system are disclosed herein. The system provides fine adjustment to the stereotactic system by providing form-fitting components that encapsulate components of the stereotactic system and allow for fine positional adjustment of an arc support member and a slide portion of the stereotactic system.

  • Patent number: 11850166
    Abstract: Various embodiments of an expandable interbody cage device configured to reduce subsidence into an endplate of a vertebral body by including a plurality of arms that engage the cortical tissue of the vertebral body. The plurality of arms increase the surface area and improve distribution of force, especially around stronger parts of the endplate such as the cortical bone at the rim of the endplate. The expandable interbody cage device maintains a low or slim profile while in a “closed” configuration during insertion between vertebrae and is further operable to laterally expand into an “open” configuration that increases the surface area of the expandable interbody cage device after insertion to securely engage the expandable interbody cage device between the vertebra. The expandable interbody cage device further includes one or more ports and/or cavities in which bone graft material can be disposed within.
