Abstract: An elongated shaft is sized and configured to establish an access path to bone having an interior volume occupied, at least in part, by cancellous bone. The elongated shaft includes a generally closed distal end portion and a side opening spaced from the closed distal end. A first tool is sized and configured to be selectively inserted into the shaft and selectively removed from the shaft. The tool includes a region that, when the first tool is inserted into the shaft, is capable of being aligned with and advanced through the side opening to project outside the side opening and contact cancellous bone. A second tool is sized and configured, upon removal of the first tool from the shaft, to introduce into the shaft a bone filling material for discharge through the side opening into the cancellous bone contacted by the first tool.

Abstract: An improved device for filling a void created in the lamina during spinal surgery including a top layer, a bottom layer and a body portion. The body portion is attached to the top layer and the bottom layer and includes a compliant mesh portion. The compliant mesh portion includes a bone material with bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) growth factor entrained thereon. The body portion is adapted to be conformable to a void left in a vertebral space after a surgeon has performed a laminectomy or hemi-laminectomy procedure. The flexible top layer has a periphery larger than that of the bottom layer such that the body portion has a section that is oblique or perpendicular to another section of the body portion or the top layer to define a flange. A method of using the device is also disclosed.

Abstract: The various embodiments disclosed herein relate to implantable devices for the treatment of syndesmosis injuries. More specifically, the various embodiments include systems, devices, and methods for implantation of an implantable device having at least one bone anchor for treating such injuries.

Abstract: A cavity creation device is introduced into a cancellous bone volume of a vertebral body through a percutaneous access path. The cavity creating device is manipulated to form a cavity in the cancellous bone volume. A volume of filling material is placed in the cavity by introducing a tube through the percutaneous access path and by conveying the filling material through a side dispensing port of the tube.

Abstract: A device is introduced into the vertebral body through a percutaneous access path. The device is manipulated to modify the cancellous bone volume for introduction of bone filling material. Bone filling material is introduced into the cancellous bone volume modified by the device along the percutaneous path. Discharge of the bone filling material is directed into the cancellous bone volume through an opening that is oriented at an angle relative to the axis of the access path.

Abstract: A device for covering and protecting the spinal cord of a patient after some or all of the spinous process or lamina has been removed. The device includes a main body adjustably attached to at least two rod attachment flanges such that each rod attachment flange may be adjusted closer and further from the main body. The rod attachment flanges are each attached to a pedicle rod having at least four pedicle screws attached thereto. The pedicle attachment screws are adapted for attachment to at least one vertebrae of the patient.
