  • Method of performing a modified intervastus approach in total knee arthroplasty procedures
    Patent number: 10149774
    Abstract: In the method of performing a modified intervastus approach in total knee arthroplasty procedures, a straight incision is initially made in a patient's knee. The incision is located medial to a midline of the patient's knee, in line with the medial border of the tibial tubercle distally extending proximal to the patient's patella. Fascia overlying a lateral edge of the patient's vastus medialis is then incised at a point where the patient's vastus medialis meets the patient's quadriceps tendon. The patient's vastus medialis is separated from the patient's quadriceps tendon and the patient's vastus medialis is elevated off of an underlying capsule. The underlying capsule is incised from a cephalad end to a caudal end thereof, extending medial to the patient's patella.

  • Acetabular cup and insertion handle
    Patent number: 9931213
    Abstract: A hip joint apparatus is described. The apparatus has an acetabular cup designed for both seated engagement within a patient's acetabulum, and articulatory reception of a matingly shaped femoral component, wherein the dome of the acetabular cup has holes configured for accepting wires and variable angle locking screws to facilitate attachment of the acetabular cup to the acetabulum, and wherein the rim of the acetabular cup has holes configured for accepting wires to provide provisional stability to the acetabular cup. The apparatus also has an insertion handle with a graspable portion and a mating portion, the mating portion attached to the graspable portion and configured for engaging with the rim of the acetabular cup, thereby coupling the insertion handle to the acetabular cup.
