Abstract: A guide for a bone cut comprises a guide base having an inner wall defining an opening. The inner wall has a plurality of detents distributed around the opening. The guide base has a proximal surface adapted to contact a skin of a person. An inner collar has one or more spring loaded devices extending outward from the inner collar in opposite directions. The inner collar is mountable with the spring loaded devices fitting within one or more of the plurality of detents. The inner collar has an inner wall defining a bore for receiving a cutting tool. The inner collar is configured to pivot the cutting tool about an axis, for cutting a bone. The axis lies along or parallel to a line along which the spring loaded devices lie.

Abstract: An instrument for use in cartilage removal comprises an elongate body having a first end and a longitudinal axis having a longitudinal direction. A cartilage removal portion is coupled to the elongate body at the first end. The cartilage removal portion includes a plurality of serrated blades substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and adapted for removing material while moving in the longitudinal direction. Each serrated blade has a centroid located along the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: An implant comprises a unitary body including an intramedullary portion connected to an extramedullary portion. The unitary body is configured to attach a first bone section to a second bone section. The intramedullary portion has a first longitudinal axis, and is configured for insertion into the first bone section. The intramedullary portion includes at least one first fastener aperture having an aperture axis oriented obliquely relative to the first longitudinal axis. The extramedullary portion is configured to abut a surface of the second bone section and includes at least one second fastener aperture disposed to transversely receive a bone fastener inserted in the second bone section. The extramedullary portion has a second longitudinal axis offset from, the first longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A targeting guide is disclosed includes a handle extending substantially along a longitudinal axis. The longitudinal handle defines one or more burr holes extending from a first side of the handle to a second side of the handle. A head is coupled to a distal end of the longitudinal handle. The head defines a plurality of guide holes sized and configured to receive a k-wire therethrough.

Abstract: A suture management device includes a handle defining a first elongate channel. The first elongate channel extends about a longitudinal circumference of the handle. A shaft extends distally from the handle. A suture anchor is coupled to a distal end of the shaft. A suture is configured to extend from the suture anchor proximally along the shaft and into the first elongate channel defined by the handle. A door integrally can be formed with the handle. The suture extends into an area between the door and the handle. The door is configured to maintain tension on the suture when in a closed position.

Abstract: A suture management device comprises a first body portion comprising a first post and a second post having a predetermined spacing. A second body portion is releasably coupled to the first body portion. A shaft extends distally from the first body portion. A suture anchor is releasably coupled to a distal end of the shaft. At least one suture extends proximally from the suture anchor along an outer surface of the shaft. The at least one suture is configured to be wrapped around the first and second posts to maintain the suture in a fixed position when the first body portion is coupled to the second body portion. The proximal end of the suture is coupled to the second body portion.

Abstract: A subtalar implant includes a body having a sidewall defining an outer perimeter of the body. The sidewall defines an inner volume. A porous material is disposed within the inner volume. The porous material has a porosity configured to promote bone ingrowth. The porosity of the porous material can be about 30% to about 70% by volume. The sidewall can include a smooth surface configured to prevent bone ingrowth.

Abstract: An implant includes a body having a cylindrical portion extending from a first end to a second end, a first nub extending from the first end, and a second nub extending from the second end. The body includes an inner layer, a middle layer, and an outer layer. The inner layer has a first length extending from a tip of the first nub to a tip of the second nub, and has a first central axis collinear with a central longitudinal axis of the implant. The outer layer has a second length extending from the first end to the second end, has a second central axis collinear with the central longitudinal axis, and provides an outer surface of the implant. The middle layer comprises a porous material disposed between the inner layer and the outer layer. The inner layer and at least one portion of the middle layer provide the two nubs.
