Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a system for coupling a graft to a bone. A graft preparation tool may be used to place one or more holes in a graft and an offset measurement tool may be used to determine the distance of the one or more holes from an edge of the graft to be aligned with a portion of the bone. One or more complementary holes may then be created in the bone and fasteners applied through the holes to couple the graft to the bone.

Abstract: Methods of making an enhanced bioactive PRP implant include supplying a centrifuge container with a collagen-based scaffold pre-inserted onto a moveable filter within the vial. A centrifuge process for creating the PRP implant is followed, resulting in a PRP/collagen implant combination. Other biologics may be added to the container instead of or in addition to the collagen-based scaffold. Additionally, methods of fixing the PRP implant into place at the point of a tear or wound include applying the PRP implant adjacent to or within a meniscal tear, or underneath or on top of a rotator cuff tear. Suture or staples may then be routed either through or over the PRP implant to hold the implant in place.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a tissue repair system and related components and associated methods that provide for suturing of tissue using three or more suture anchoring implants, including multiple pairs of connected implants in some embodiments, all of which may be deployed from a single device. Some embodiments achieve this by employing a push mechanism capable of being activated to advance the push mechanism incrementally to discrete positions within the device and deploy implants one at a time from the device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of both repairing a ligament and augmenting the repair. A single anchor may provide a single anchoring location for both a repair member and an augmenting member at a first end of the ligament.

Abstract: A composite graft is disclosed, that may replace a segment of the hip labrum during a labral tear reconstruction. The composite graft may include a first sheet that acts as a scaffold and a second sheet that comprises a biologically active component. The first and second sheet are formed in a tubular roll with a spiraled cross section, with alternating layers of the first and second sheet. The composite graft may provide structural integrity for the hip labrum supplemented with growth factors.

Abstract: A bioactive scaffold for use in reconstruction of an anterior cruciate ligament of a patient, may include a tissue matrix configured to wrap around a graft configured to extend from a first bone of a joint to a second bone of the joint. The tissue matrix may include collagen type I. The tissue matrix may include a first plurality of apertures extending through the tissue matrix along a first edge of the tissue matrix and a second plurality of apertures extending through the tissue matrix along a second edge of the tissue matrix. At least one filament may be configured to be laced through the first plurality of apertures and the second plurality of apertures and draw the first edge of the tissue matrix toward the second edge of the tissue matrix when the at least one filament is subjected to tension thereby closing the tissue matrix around the graft.

Abstract: A kit and method for reconstructing an Achilles tendon may include a first anchor member, a first flexible member configured to engage the first anchor member, a second anchor member, a second flexible member configured to engage the second anchor member, a first adjustable anchor assembly including a first outer member and a first inner member configured to axially translate within a first lumen of the first outer member in response to rotation of the first inner member relative to the first outer member, a second adjustable anchor assembly include a second outer member and a second inner member configured to axially translate within a second lumen of the second outer member in response to rotation of the second inner member relative to the second outer member, and a collagen implant configured to engage a surface of the Achilles tendon.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to instrumentation that facilitate coracoid-glenoid fixation in Latarjet procedures. For example, a single instrument, a coracoid resection tool, may be provided/utilized to prepare a coracoid bone graft for size, flatness, and hole drilling. A glenoid drill guide may further be provided/utilized that uses sized offsets for placement of the coracoid graft flush with the glenoid. Further embodiments of the disclosure are directed to corresponding methods that employ this instrumentation. For example, a surgeon may employs the coracoid resection tool as a guide to plane the inferior coracoid surface that will serve as the coracoid graft surface. The coracoid resection tool may further guide the placement of coracoid holes along the length of the coracoid and orient the holes approximately perpendicular to the planed coracoid graft surface. For example a proximal coracoid hole may be positioned towards the proximal end (i.e.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include implants, instruments, and methods for attaching or reattaching soft tissue (200, 2200) to a bone (100), that enable independent tensioning of multiple connectors such as sutures (60, 160, 2060, 2160) and enable redundant fixation between bone (100) and soft tissue (200, 2200). Some embodiments provide for improved accuracy of the placement of substantially parallel tunnels through which soft tissue (200, 2200) to bone (100) connectors such as sutures (60, 160, 2060, 2160) are passed.

Abstract: A quick disconnect assembly including a tubular housing. The housing includes a cam pin secured to the housing and a nut positioned within the housing cannulation. The nut has a first threaded channel adapted to engage a threaded shaft, a second, non-threaded channel extending at an angle to the first channel, and an arcuate groove formed on an outer surface of the nut. When the cam pin of the housing engages the groove at about a distal end of the nut, the nut is positioned in a loading position where the second channel extends approximately parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing. When the cam pin engages the groove at about a proximal end of the nut, the nut is positioned in a locking position where the first channel extends approximately parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing.
