Patent number: 10123825Abstract: An improved joint fusion screw for transiliac fixation has a screw head and extending therefrom an elongate hollow shaft. The hollow shaft has an externally threaded end portion extending to a tip end and a non-externally threaded shank portion having a plurality of window openings. At or near the tip end is a start of a thread with a bone cutting flute. The bone cutting flute has a cutting edge on a circumferential exterior of the threaded tip to cut bone and directs the cut bone internally into a bone receiving opening in the hollow shaft directly in front of the cutting flute. The cutting edge lies at the start of the thread extending radially above the bone receiving opening at least partially overhanging the opening configured to cut bone.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2018Date of Patent: November 13, 2018Assignee: Amendia, Inc.Inventors: Dale Whipple, Jason Hayes Tillett, John G.

Patent number: 9451994Abstract: A spinal implant revision device has a revision connector and a tulip member. The revision connector is configured for attachment to a pre-existing rod in a patient. The revision connector has a slotted opening configured to receive a first or a pre-existing rod. The tulip member is pivotally connected to the revision connector and movable in angularity within predetermined ranges in a first plane. This first plane is parallel to a rod to which the revision connector is attached. A second plane which is non-parallel to that first plane allows a second or new rod to be received in the tulip and allows the second rod to pivot relative to the first rod.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2015Date of Patent: September 27, 2016Assignee: Amendia, Inc.Inventors: Dale Whipple, Jason Hayes Tillett, William C. Tally, Kaveh Khajavi
