Abstract: The present disclosure relates to various embodiments of an inserter assembly system and methods of using the same. The inserter assembly includes a housing comprising an inner surface extending within the housing, the inner surface comprising a recess, and an opening designed to receive a portion of a knob. The inserter assembly includes a bender fork received within and selectively engaging with the recess, the bender fork comprising a threaded opening and a prong, the prong further comprising a hook. The inserter assembly includes a push rod comprising a cavity sized to receive a locking pin, wherein the locking pin comprises locking pin threads. The knob is designed to rotate within the opening and selectively engage with the locking pin. The locking pin threads selectively engage with the threaded opening. The bender fork translates within the recess between a first bender fork position and a second bender fork position.

Abstract: A spinal implant comprises an implant body extending between an anterior surface and a posterior surface. The implant body includes a first vertebral engaging surface and a second vertebral engaging surface. The implant body includes an outer surface that defines an oblique surface. A wall is connectable with the implant body and translatable relative to the oblique surface. Systems and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: A system for creating a simulated foot position, with or without weightbearing, includes a base configured to support a foot thereon and a footpad securable with the base in an upright position. The footpad in the upright position receives the foot thereagainst such that the footpad maintains the foot in a simulated foot position. The footpad pivotally secures with the base such that the footpad moves between the upright position and a stowed position. The footpad further pivotally secures with the base such that the upright position of the footpad includes multiple upright positions having different angles that provide the footpad with multiple simulated foot positions.

Abstract: The technical description relates to expandable spacer configured to engage an intervertebral disk. An example expandable spacer includes a main body, a first endplate, a second endplate, a driving member, a plurality of pins, and an actuation member. The expandable member is also configured to transition from a first configuration to a second configuration. Additionally, various expandable spacers are described and illustrated herein.

Abstract: Embodiments of a handle for use in a surgical tool that uses electricity is disclosed. In one embodiment, the handle is autoclaveable and reusable, and includes connections between an electrical cable (e.g. for providing electrical energy and/or transmitting electrical signals) and an operating end of the tool. An insert member having arms for stripping wire or cable electrically connects the cable and the operating end of the tool, and a set screw may be provided to hold the cable in place. A clip member may also be provided to hold the handle to the rest of the tool. Method for using and assembling handle embodiments are also described.

Abstract: Methods and instrumentation for vertebral interbody fusion are provided. Sleeve assemblies can be provided with a reduced width portion adjacent the distal end to limit the amount of retraction of the surrounding vascular and neural structures required for the procedure. A sleeve assembly can be provided with a guide sleeve removably engaged to a guide sleeve housing. The guide sleeve can be removed during surgery to improve the surgeon's viewing of the operative site while the guide sleeve housing maintains disc space distraction. Methods and instruments for inserting and using the guide sleeve housing are also provided.

Abstract: Methods and instruments are provided for performing spinal disc space preparation and implant insertion in minimally invasive procedures. The instruments include cutting instruments and implant insertion instruments adapted for insertion through a minimally invasive access portal to a spinal disc space. The proximal portions of the instruments are adapted to facilitate viewing through a proximal end opening of the access portal with the instruments positioned through the access portal while also enhancing the surgeon's control of the distal working end of the instruments while in the disc space.
