An orthopedic anchoring system for attaching a spinal stabilization system and concomitantly fusing a sacroiliac joint is disclosed that includes a delivery tool and an implant assembly for insertion into a joint space of a sacroiliac joint. The implant assembly may be secured using anchors inserted through bores within the implant body and into the underlying sacrum and/or ilium. The implant body may also include an attachment fitting reversibly attached to a guide to provide attachment fittings for elements of the spinal stabilization system. The implant assembly may be releasably coupled to an implant arm of the delivery tool such that the implant arm is substantially aligned with the insertion element of the implant assembly. An anchor arm used to insert the anchor may be coupled to the implant arm in a fixed and nonadjustable arrangement such that the anchor is generally aligned with a bore within the implant assembly.

Systems and methods for fusing a sacroiliac joint and anchoring an orthopedic appliance

Implants for the fusion or fixation of two bone segments are described. For example, the implants can be used for the fusion or fixation of the sacroiliac joint. The implants can include fenestrations, have a rectilinear overall cross-sectional area, and have a curvature. Some implants can also be used to rescue failed implants.

Implants for bone fixation or fusion

Systems for and methods of fusing a sacroiliac joint are provided which may include an implant adapted to be inserted into the joint space defined by the bones of a sacrum and an ilium and a delivery tool for inserting the implant into the sacroiliac joint. The method may include delivering the implant into the SI joint in a first position and transitioning the implant from the first position to a second position in situ. The implant may be configured such that in the second position the implant generally mimics a shape of the joint space of the sacroiliac joint. The implant may further include an actuation mechanism configured to cause the implant to transition from the first position to the second position. The actuation mechanism may include a hydraulic, pneumatic, geared or screwed mechanical arrangement.

Methods of fusing a sacroiliac joint

A surgical preparation tool for preparing a sacroiliac joint for a surgical procedure comprising a trial tool assembly and a cutting tool configured to releasably and slidably couple with the trial tool assembly, wherein the trial tool assembly is configured to guide the cutting tool during distal-proximal translation such that as the cutting tool distally advances relative to an implant trial of the trial tool assembly, at least a portion of a cutting element of the cutting tool extends generally over and perpendicularly outward from a first top surface of a body of the implant trial.

Systems for and methods of preparing a sacroiliac joint for fusion

The present invention generally relates to bone implants. More specifically, the present invention relates to bone implants used for the fixation or fusion of the sacroiliac joint and/or the spine. For example, a system for fusing or stabilizing a plurality of bones is provided. The system includes an implant structure having stem portion and a head portion, the stem portion having a rectilinear cross sectional area. A tulip or saddle structure can be attached to the head portion, and a rod can be secured within the tulip or saddle structure.

Implants for spinal fixation or fusion

Systems, devices and methods for fusing both sacroiliac joints of a patient using a long implant are provided. The method can include inserting a guide pin through the first ilium and across the first SI-Joint, through the sacrum and above the S1 foramen, across the second SI-Joint, and through the second ilium; forming a first rectilinear cavity through the first ilium and the first SI-Joint; forming a second rectilinear cavity through the second ilium and the second SI-Joint, wherein the first rectilinear cavity and the second rectilinear cavity are aligned; and inserting an implant through the first cavity, across the first SI-Joint, through the sacrum, across the second SI-Joint, and through the second cavity.

Long implant for sacroiliac joint fusion

The present invention relates generally to implants and tools for the fixation or fusion of joints or bone segments. These tools include tissue dilators and protectors. Other tools include broaches used to shape bores in bone. The tools can also include a system for removing an implant from bone. Implants can include assemblies of one or more implant structures that make possible the achievement of diverse interventions involving the fusion and/or stabilization of lumbar and sacral vertebra in a non-invasive manner, with minimal incision, and without the necessitating the removing the intervertebral disc. Implants for fusing both sacroiliac joints of a patient include a long implant that extends across both sacroiliac joints.

Systems, device, and methods for joint fusion

This application relates generally to broaches. More specifically, this application relates to broaches used to shape bores in bone. The broaches can shape the bores to receive an implant and also cut additional tubes or channels for receiving bone graft material and/or biologic aids.
