Bone treatment system

摘要

A system for removing bone growths and realigning bones includes a bone planer and an osteotomy guide. The bone planer includes a hollow sleeve that has an end embeddable within a bone. The bone planer also includes a rotary blade that is coupled to the hollow sleeve. The rotary blade is positioned within and rotatable relative to the hollow sleeve. The osteotomy guide includes a distal portion and a proximal portion. The distal and proximal portions are slidably coupled together. Each of the distal and proximal portions includes an upright that defines a cut guide surface. A space defined between the cut guide surfaces defines a cut path corresponding with a desired cut through the bone.

主权项

1. An osteotomy guide, comprising:
a distal portion comprising a first upright defining a first cut guide surface; and a proximal portion comprising a second upright defining a second cut guide surface; wherein the distal portion is laterally slidably coupleable to the proximal portion, and wherein when the distal portion is laterally slidably coupled to the proximal portion a cut path for receiving a cutting blade is defined between the first and second cut guide surfaces; and wherein the distal portion is slidably coupleable to the proximal portion via a coupling mechanism, wherein when slidably coupling the distal and proximal portions, the coupling mechanism allows movement of the distal portion relative to the proximal portion in a first direction and prevents movement of the distal portion relative to the proximal portion in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
