Abstract
This disclosure relates to surgical systems, devices and methods for planning and implementing surgical procedures. The systems and methods disclosed herein may be utilized to establish surgical guides for positioning implants relative to the anatomy.
Claims21
A system for an orthopaedic procedure comprising:
- a bushing including a bushing passage dimensioned to receive a first guide element for guiding a surgical instrument;
- and
- a locating component comprising:
- a main body including a locating passageway extending along a guide axis, the locating passageway dimensioned to at least partially receive the bushing to set a trajectory of the bushing passage;
- locating arms extending from the main body, the locating arms including respective patient-specific contact surfaces dimensioned to follow a bone contour;
- and
- at least one extension that extends circumferentially from a respective one of the locating arms relative to the guide axis, the at least one extension including a guide passage dimensioned to receive a second guide element, and a position of the guide passage in the at least one extension is based on a position of an implant passage of an implant associated with a surgical plan.

A system for an orthopaedic procedure comprising:
- a locating component including a main body, a plurality of locating arms extending from a periphery of the main body, and a locating passageway in the main body, wherein the locating arms include respective patient-specific contact surfaces dimensioned to follow a bone contour of a patient;
- a sleeve releasably securable to the locating component, the sleeve including a sleeve passageway;
- and
- a bushing including a bushing passage dimensioned to receive a first guide element for guiding a surgical instrument, the bushing at least partially insertable through the sleeve passageway and the locating passageway to set a trajectory of the bushing passage;
- and
- wherein a depth stop is established by the locating component within the sleeve passageway, and the depth stop is dimensioned to limit insertion of a surgical tool through the locating passageway.
