Method Of Forming A Temporary Implant

US Patent:
6361731, Mar 26, 2002
Filed:
Nov 10, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/710293
Inventors:
Daniel Bryce Smith - Warsaw IN
Mark V. Vandewalle - Pierceton IN
Frank Ebert - Baltimore MD
Assignee:
Biomet, Inc. - Warsaw IN
International Classification:
B29D 3100
US Classification:
2642711, 264318, 2643281, 264317, 2642791, 623901
Abstract:
A method for forming a temporary orthopedic implant used in an orthopedic surgical procedure. The method includes mixing bone cement during a surgical procedure. An appropriately sized cement mold is selected which is translucent and includes an input port. The cement mold is filled with bone cement to form the temporary implant. A surgeon determines that the cement mold is fully filled by viewing through the translucent cement mold. The surgeon further fills the cement mold by directing a nozzle within the input port of the cement mold. The cement mold may further be pierced to relieve any air pockets formed in the cement mold. The temporary implant is then subsequently implanted into a patient. The temporary implant may also include a re-enforcement member included into the temporary implant.

Cannulated Fastener System For Repair Of Bone Fracture

US Patent:
6402757, Jun 11, 2002
Filed:
Mar 13, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/523821
Inventors:
Mark V. Vandewalle - Pierceton IN
Assignee:
Biomet, Inc. - Warsaw IN
International Classification:
A61B 1700
US Classification:
606 80, 606 86, 606 72, 606 73, 606104
Abstract:
A fastener assembly for repairing fractured bone material includes a wire having a wire leading end for forming a bore through the bone material and a wire trailing end for extending beyond a near-side cortex of the bone material. The fastener includes a head portion having spaced-apart grooves defining cutting edges, a lower portion having threads, and an axial aperture therethrough for receiving the wire. The fastener is adapted to slide axially over the wire trailing end and be driven toward the wire leading end to countersink in the bone material. A driver including a driver body having an axially disposed aperture therethrough for accommodating said guide wire, and a driver head having fingers adapted to engage the spaced-apart grooves of the fastener head portion, is adapted to drive the fastener in the bone material. A measuring sleeve including a tubular body adapted to be positioned generally coaxially relative the wire trailing end and abutting the bone material includes a graduated scale thereon for comparison to the wire trailing end, whereby the depth of the bore can be determined.

Intramedullary Nail With Modular Sleeve

US Patent:
6652528, Nov 25, 2003
Filed:
Jul 17, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/907289
Inventors:
Mark Vandewalle - Pierceton IN
Assignee:
Biomet, Inc. - Warsaw IN
International Classification:
A61B 1756
US Classification:
606 62
Abstract:
Long bone fracture fixation systems, and methods for using same, are described. The systems primarily include an intramedullary nail having an elongated throughbore and a first slot for receiving transcortical screws and another slot for receiving an insert. A modular sleeve having a throughbore and a pair of openings for receiving transcortical screws and another pair of dissimilarly shaped openings for receiving the insert are placed over the proximal portion of the intramedullary nail. The modular sleeve can be provided with various opening patterns for receiving transcortical screws at various angles relative to the intramedullary nail. The insert is then properly positioned and is held in place by a hollow set screw disposed within, and coaxial to, the throughbore of the intramedullary nail. In this manner, the throughbore of the intramedullary nail is unobstructed, thus allowing instrumentation to be freely inserted through the entire length of the throughbore.

Ultrasonically Driven Osteotome Having A Curved Tool Tip

US Patent:
6790211, Sep 14, 2004
Filed:
Feb 25, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/082657
Inventors:
Edward J. McPherson - Manhattan Beach CA
Mark V. Vandewalle - Pierceton IN
Assignee:
Biomet, Inc. - Warsaw IN
International Classification:
A61B 1756
US Classification:
606 84, 606169
Abstract:
A tool tip for use with an ultrasonically driven osteotome, is described. The tool tip has a first curvature in a first plane and a second curvature in a second plane oriented ninety degrees from the first plane. The resulting curvature of the tool tip substantially corresponds to the medial curve of a femoral component of a hip replacement system. The tool tip provides easy access to the area in proximity to the medial curve of the femoral component, thus enabling the efficient softening and removal of cement therefrom during revision procedures.

Method And Apparatus For Intramedullary Delivery Of A Material

US Patent:
7141054, Nov 28, 2006
Filed:
Feb 3, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/357189
Inventors:
Mark Victor Vandewalle - Pierceton IN, US
Assignee:
Biomet, Inc. - Warsaw IN
International Classification:
A61B 17/58
A61F 2/00
US Classification:
606 92
Abstract:
A method and apparatus to apply a selected material to the intramedullary canal of a selected bone. The apparatus generally includes a reservoir area from which the selected material can be expressed. The apparatus further includes an outlet or nozzle which allows for directing of the material as it is being expressed from the reservoir. Further, the apparatus allows the material to be expressed into the intramedullary canal during a procedure involving the intramedullary canal. The apparatus obviates forming an additional incision to apply the material.

Method And Apparatus For Retaining A Guide Wire

US Patent:
7207995, Apr 24, 2007
Filed:
Jan 29, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/767619
Inventors:
Mark V Vandewalle - Pierceton IN, US
Assignee:
Biomer Manufacturing Corp. - Warsaw IN
International Classification:
A61B 17/90
A61B 17/17
US Classification:
606104, 606 96
Abstract:
A cannulated medical instrument for insertion of a medical device over a guide wire. The instrument includes a cannulated driver member configured to engage the medical device and insert the medical device at an insertion rate. The instrument also includes a cannulated follower member rotateably engaged with the cannulated driver member. A clasping device is connected to the cannulated follower member and moves the guide wire distally away from the cannulated driver member at an extraction rate. The clasping device can be configured to hold the guide wire rotationless and in a neutral position while the cannulated driver member rotates.

Method And Apparatus For Cementing A Screw Anchor

US Patent:
7338493, Mar 4, 2008
Filed:
Jun 27, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/608701
Inventors:
Mark V Vandewalle - Pierceton IN, US
Assignee:
Biomet Manufacturing Corp. - Warsaw IN
International Classification:
A61B 17/56
US Classification:
606 73
Abstract:
A bone screw anchor capable of securely fastening a fixation device to weak or brittle bone. The anchor includes a distal region terminating in an open aperture or a solid tapered terminus. The distal region may include cutting flutes and a helical thread extending through an intermediate region, so as to make the anchor self-cutting. The proximal region has a receptor for receiving a driver for driving the anchor within a bore or hole within the bone. The anchor has an interior bore with internal threads for receiving a bone screw used to secure a fixation device to the anchor. The bore may have a plurality of ports providing passage to the exterior of the anchor. Once seated entirely within the receptor, the anchor's position is secured using bone cement. Bone cement is delivered to the bore or hole before the anchor is placed in the receptor or after via the ports.
