Patent

CA 2601976

Embodiments of the present invention provide a milling system and method that provides a precise triangular cut in a patient's proximal femur. The system allows the surgeon to mill in a single direction, that is, the drill is in the same or similar longitudinal place as the handle of the milling system, preventing the surgeon from having to enter the patient's leg at two different angles. The present invention also provides a milling system that can be pre- assembled (e.g., on the back table by a nurse while the surgeon is preparing the site), which enables the milling to take place in one step.

L'invention concerne des modes de réalisation d~un système de fraisage et d~un procédé qui permet de fraiser selon une forme exactement triangulaire dans le fémur proximal d~un patient. Le système permet au chirurgien de fraiser dans un seul sens, c'est-à-dire que la perceuse est au même endroit que le manche du système de fraisage ou à un endroit similaire longitudinalement, empêchant ainsi le chirurgien de devoir pénétrer dans la jambe du patient à deux angles différents. La présente invention concerne aussi un système de fraisage qui peut être préassemblé (par ex. sur une autre table que la table d'opération par une infirmière pendant que le chirurgien prépare le site), ce qui permet d'effectuer le fraisage en une seule étape.
