Abstract: A bone material removal device, including a tubular element comprising a proximal end and a distal end, a shaft received within the tubular element and comprising a proximal end and a distal end, a cutting tooth movably coupled to the distal end of the shaft and a shaft displacement actuator at the proximal end of the tubular element rotatably coupled to the shaft, wherein at least partial rotation of the actuator in a first direction brings the cutting tooth to travel from a closed retracted position to an open extended position.

Abstract: A bone material removal device including a cannula, a bone drilling forward tip and a bore widening element including a bone carving portion that slides axially relative to the cannula and extends in a circumferential direction and wherein the axial movement of the bore widening element relative to the cannula brings a carving portions to travel and extend radially in a circumferential direction beyond a surface of the cannula and carve bone from a wall of a bore.

Abstract: A flexible bone tool comprising a bone tissue removal element configured at a distal end of the tool, at least two links coupled proximally to the bone tissue removal element, the links connected to each other by a radial interference connection in which at least one radially outwards extending protrusion of a first link is received within a recess of a subsequent link. In some embodiments, the links are interconnected by a “snap-fit” connection. In some embodiments, the flexible bone tool is configured for transferring torque at a magnitude sufficient for drilling and/or reaming a bore in a bone.

Abstract: A device for manual manipulation of a guidewire including a generally cylindrical, integrally formed, compressible element arranged along a longitudinal axis and being compressible transversely to the longitudinal axis and having first, second and third, respectively uncompressed, fully compressed and partially compressed operative orientations, the element in the fully compressed operative orientation defining an axial slot adapted for side mounting of the element onto a guidewire and the element in the partially compressed operative orientation being adapted for tightly engaging a guidewire in the slot such that axial and rotational movement of the element produces corresponding axial and rotational movement of the guidewire.
