Appl. No.:
9/467679
Inventors:
Andrew C. Kim - Temecula CA
International Classification:
A61B 1704
US Classification:
606232
Abstract:
A self-locking tissue anchoring screw comprises an elongated shank having a proximal end and a distal end, a threaded portion of the shank tapering to a point at the distal end, a cylindrical journal formed on the shank between opposing shoulders adjacent the proximal end a clamping ring having an inner diameter greater than the cylindrical journal mounted on the journal for receiving and clamping a suture upon insertion of the screw, and a head at the proximal end adapted to receive a driver.

Self-Locking Suture Anchor, System And Method

US Patent:
2007017, Jul 26, 2007
Filed:
Jan 20, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/335509
Inventors:
Andrew Kim - Temecula CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/58
US Classification:
606073000
Abstract:
A self-locking suture anchor comprises a shank with an unthreaded portion between a first, proximal thread flight and a second flight axially displaced therefrom. A suture retainer collar through which a suture can be pulled surrounds the unthreaded portion. When the self-locking suture anchor is threaded into bone, the suture is compressed between the suture retainer collar and the screw and between the bone and the screw. A drive socket is in a central cavity of the shank. A driver includes a driver head. Additional sutures may also be supported to a holding suture retainer in the central cavity. A method includes securing a suture to position sutured tissue with respect to the self-locking suture anchor or to establish a particular tension in the suture.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Hamstring Tendon Fixation System

US Patent:
6632245, Oct 14, 2003
Filed:
Sep 21, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/961509
Inventors:
Andrew C. Kim - Temecula CA 92591
International Classification:
A61F 208
US Classification:
623 1314, 606 72, 606232
Abstract:
A system for securing a tendon to a bore hole surface in a femur and a tibia, the system including a bone anchor having a flexible body with a distal end having an aperture to receive the tendon, and two legs forming a concave relief extending from the aperture to a split end, with the concave relief forcing the tendon into direct contact with the femur bore hole surface. An anchor insertion instrument is used to insert the anchor into the femur bore hole, the instrument having a pair of spaced apart pins to hold the bone anchor. A tibia fixation device joins the tendon to the tibia bore hole and has a generally cylindrical body with an open proximal end and at least two rounded legs formed by at least two slits extending from a distal end. At least one opening is located adjacent to the open proximal end for receiving the tendon. A clamping screw and spiked washer are used to lock the tibia fixation device and tendons into the tibia bore hole.

Hydrodynamic Suture Passer

US Patent:
8444658, May 21, 2013
Filed:
Jul 6, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/883742
Inventors:
Andrew C. Kim - Temecula CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/04, A61B 17/12
US Classification:
606144
Abstract:
A hydrodynamic suturing instrument, comprising an elongated cannulated suturing needle having a distal end configured to carry a suture through tissue and a proximal end adapted to connect to a syringe barrel and a lumen extending form said proximal end to an opening at the distal end for having a size for the passage of a suture, the opening at the distal end configured to receive a suture extending from the lumen along an outer surface of the needle wherein a sharp point extends forward of the suture. A companion instrument includes forceps having a distal end with jaws and a proximal end with a cannula extending from the proximal end to the distal end for passage of the needle, and the jaws having an opening enabling passage of the needle through tissue grasped in the jaws.

Bi-Directional Universal Dynamic Compression Device

US Patent:
5779704, Jul 14, 1998
Filed:
Jul 3, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/674784
Inventors:
Andrew C. Kim - Temecula CA
International Classification:
A61B 1772
US Classification:
606 64
Abstract:
A compression interlocking system for stabilizing long bone fractures, comprises an elongated intramedullary rod having a proximial end, a distal end and a longitudinal axis, the rod adapted for extending within a bore generally parallel to a longitudinal axis of a long bone from a proximal end of the bone to beyond a fracture of the bone, a threaded member for fixing the proximal end of the rod to a first portion of a bone having a fracture, a second member for fixing the distal end to a second portion of the bone having the fracture, and a cam for moving the second portion of the bone toward the first portion of the bone for closing and applying compression to the fracture.
