Embodiment Construction

[0040] During knee replacement, knee arthroplasty, or total knee arthroplasty (TKA), one or more implants may be used to cover the ends of the femur and / or tibia that form the knee joint. The knee includes the femur, or femur, of the thigh, the tibia, or osteobone, of the lower leg, and the patella, or kneecap. TKA may be needed when osteoarthritis causes rupture of the cartilage and / or one or more bones in the knee joint, rheumatoid arthritis causes inflammation of the synovial membrane, or trauma causes bone and / or cartilage damage in the knee joint. Although TKA is illustrated here, it should be understood that other orthopedic or other surgical procedures may use the devices and systems described herein. To improve surgical outcomes, surgical navigation and / or robotic systems may be used to navigate one or more instruments and / or assist a surgeon in performing one or more procedures.

Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods for computer-assisted navigation and / or robot-assisted surgery are disclosed. Navigable instrumentation, which are capable of being navigated by a surgeon using a surgical robot system, allow for the navigated movement of instruments or other surgical devices. The instruments may be suitable for procedures involving navigated and / or robotic total knee arthroplasty, for example.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to medical devices and systems, and more particularly, to navigational surgical instruments used during surgical procedures. Background technique [0002] There are many surgical interventions that require osteotomy, ie, cutting of an anatomical structure such as bone along a target plane. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may involve cutting the femoral and tibial epiphysis to remove damaged bone and cartilage and allow for the installation of a knee prosthesis. [0003] Currently in TKA surgery, patient satisfaction may only be around 80%. This is low compared to some other types of orthopedic surgery, such as hip arthroplasty, for which patient satisfaction is typically around 95%. Despite innovations in new implant designs, custom cutting template solutions, custom implants, and more, these satisfaction levels have remained largely unchanged for decades. This suggests that TKA and other orthopedic procedures may have s...
