Abstract: Instrument systems for performing total ankle arthroplasties comprise an instrument adapter, a talus reaming guide and a talar trial system. The instrument adapter comprises a coupler for attaching to a robotic surgical arm, an extension arm extending from the coupler, a talus resection block attached to the extension arm, including a talus cutting guide surface, and an interface for receiving another instrument. The talus reaming guide comprises a second attachment member for coupling to the interface, and a reaming hoop for confining movement of a reamer. The talar trial system comprises a talar adapter for connecting to the interface, and a talar trial couplable to the talar adapter, the talar trial including a talar bearing surface. The talus resection block can serve as a universal instrument adapter for mounting the talus reaming guide, the talar trial system and a tibia resection block for performing a total ankle arthroplasty.

Abstract: Patient-specific guide systems and methods for performing bone resections for ankle arthroplasties comprises a bone guide body and a bone resection block. The bone guide body comprises a patient-specific surface for engaging a surface of a talus or a tibia, and a first pin hole and a first socket in the bone guide body. The bone resection block is removably insertable into the first socket, receives a first pin that can be inserted in the first pin hole, and includes a resection guide surface. The system further comprises a floating bone trial that attaches to the bone resection block via a floating bone guide. The floating bone trail receives a chamfer spacer and guide for further resecting the bone. The system further comprises a stylus for engagement with the resection guide surface to confirm resection depth. The bone guide body includes alignment pin and resection block snap lock features.

Abstract: An impaction adaptor connectable to a surgical drill and a surgical impactor can include a body comprising a proximal portion defining a body bore and including a first plurality of projections; and a distal portion connected to the proximal portion and insertable into the surgical impactor; a shaft located at least partially within the body bore and engageable with the surgical drill to be driven to rotate within the body bore; and a driving body located at least partially within the body bore and secured to the shaft, the driving body including a plurality of second projections rotatably engageable with the first projections to cause translation of the driving body relative to the body to deliver an impaction force to the surgical impactor in response to rotation of the shaft.

Abstract: Techniques for securing an instrument to a surgical robot are provided. In an example, an apparatus can include a first portion, a second portion and a collar. The first portion can attach to an end of an arm of the surgical robot and can include a first rod extending away from the arm. The second portion can hold the surgical instrument and can include a second rod extending away from the surgical instrument. The collar can slidably adjust along an aligned axis of the first and second portions secure interfaces of the portions and to allow engagement and dis-engagement of the interfaces with each other.
