Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates generally to surgical drill guides. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to surgical drill guides used in arthroscopic surgical procedures.
  • Reconstructive bone and ligament surgery often involves drilling into bones to attach soft tissue such as ligaments or tendon grafts, as well as various artificial replacements and/or attachments for articulated joints.
  • Many surgical drill guide systems are known in the art which are adapted to insert a guide wire into the bone at a predetermined position.
  • the guide wire after insertion, provides a guide for a cannulated drill by which a passageway is then formed in the bone.
  • the ligament graft or other soft tissue may then be secured in the passageway by a fixation means, such as an interference screw or a suture tied to a screw post.
  • these drill guide systems can usually only be used on a large bone, such as a human femur.
  • the surgical drill guide system of this disclosure has a modular, rather than circular, configuration, which allows for a larger number of interchangeable guide arms to be quickly and easily connected to a single handle.
  • the interchangeable guide arms have a contoured geometry and are affixed to the handle by means of a quick disconnect, such as a bayonet fitting.
  • the surgical drill guide system has the ability to accommodate a wider range of anatomy, from small fibulas to large femurs.
  • the surgical drill guide system has a single-piece handle incorporating the guide arm into the handle, which eliminates the need for the end user to assemble the guide prior to use. In both designs, the distal end of the guide arm acts as a safety stop for the guide wire by preventing the guide wire from penetrating too far past the far side of the bone.
  • the surgical drill guide systems of this disclosure have ergonomically balanced designs that allow the drill guide system to be removed from the repair site while leaving a guide wire in its intended location in human bone.
  • surgical drill guide system of this disclosure may include one or more of the following, in any suitable combination.
  • the surgical drill guide system of this disclosure includes an elongate handle having a proximal end, a distal end, and a longitudinal axis extending therebetween.
  • An internal cannulation extends a length of the handle between the proximal end and the distal end.
  • a sleeve member configured to slideably extend through the cannulation has an internal channel for passage of a guide wire and defines an insertion axis.
  • a guide arm is removeably coupled to the distal end of the handle.
  • the guide arm has a proximal portion rotatable relative to the handle, and a distal arcuate portion terminating in a stop disposed at a point along the insertion axis.
  • a tip of the sleeve member and the stop of the guide arm define a drilling path therebetween for the guide wire along the insertion axis.
  • a surface of the sleeve member includes a plurality of grooves for selective engagement with a ratcheting member extending into an interior of the handle.
  • the ratcheting member selectively engages under spring force into each one of the plurality of grooves such that the sleeve member can be advanced progressively until resisted by bone.
  • the proximal portion of the guide arm includes at least one radial pin member for engaging at least one slot in the distal end of the handle.
  • the at least one slot is an "L" shaped slot or an "S" shaped slot.
  • the proximal portion of the guide arm includes a slot for passage of the guide wire when the guide arm is removed from the guide wire.
  • the tip of the sleeve member is configured to penetrate soft tissue.
  • a guide wire extends through the internal channel of the sleeve member.
  • a surface of the guide wire has a plurality of depth markings to indicate a tunnel length when the guide wire is drilled into bone.
  • a surface of the guide stop has a hole for receiving a distal end of the guide wire.
  • the sleeve member is extendable along the insertion axis through a range between the proximal portion of the guide arm and the stop of the guide arm.
  • the surgical drill guide system of this disclosure includes a handle having a proximal portion, a curved distal portion, and an internal cannulation extending through the proximal portion in communication with an exterior of the handle through a slot formed through the proximal portion.
  • a sleeve member configured to slideably extend through the cannulation has an internal channel for passage of a guide wire and defines an insertion axis.
  • the distal portion of the handle terminates in a stop disposed at a point along the insertion axis.
  • a tip of the sleeve member and the stop define a drilling path therebetween for the guide wire along the insertion axis.
  • a surface of the sleeve member includes a plurality of grooves for selective engagement with a ratcheting member extending into an interior of the handle.
  • the ratcheting member selectively engages under spring force into each one of the plurality of grooves such that the sleeve member can be advanced progressively until resisted by bone.
  • the tip of the sleeve member is configured to penetrate soft tissue.
  • the sleeve member is extendable along the insertion axis through a range between the proximal portion of the handle and the stop on the distal portion of the handle.
  • a method for surgical drilling of this disclosure includes: 1) positioning a stop of a drill guide system at a placement point on bone along an insertion axis defined by a sleeve member of the drill guide system, the sleeve member slideably extending through a handle of the drill guide system, the placement point representative of a drilling site on the bone along the insertion axis; 2) advancing a tip of the sleeve member to the drilling site; 3) passing a guide wire through the sleeve member; and 4) drilling the guide wire into the bone along the insertion axis to indicate a path for a surgical drill.
  • the method further includes removing the drill guide system from the guide wire by passing the guide wire through a slot extending through the drill guide system.
  • Advancing a tip of the sleeve member to the drilling site includes selectively engaging a ratcheting member extending into an interior of the handle with a plurality of grooves on a surface of the sleeve member.
  • the method further includes unlocking the ratcheting member by rotating the sleeve to disengage the ratcheting member from the plurality of grooves.
  • the method further includes using a plurality of markings on a surface of the guide wire to measure an insertion depth of the guide wire in the bone.

  • the surgical drill guide system 100 includes a cannulated, generally tubular handle 102.
  • a distal end of the handle 102 is coupled to a guide adaptor 106, which is configured to secure an arcuate guide arm 104 to the handle 102, as further described below.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de guidage de foret chirurgical à configuration modulaire permettant un raccordement rapide et aisé d'un certain nombre de bras de guidage interchangeables à un seul manche. Le système de guidage de foret chirurgical présente une conception ergonomiquement équilibrée qui permet au système de guidage de foret d'être retiré tout en laissant un fil-guide dans son emplacement prévu au sein d'un os humain. L'extrémité distale du système de guidage de foret sert de butée de sécurité pour le fil-guide en empêchant celui-ci de s'enfoncer trop profondément au-delà du côté opposé de l'os.
