Articulating surgical tool
Abstract:
A surgical instrument for releasable connection to a surgical tool having two or more sections that are able to articulate 360 degrees in differing increments and directions. The articulation of the sections allows for the distal end to be spatially offset from the proximal, yet maintain parallel longitudinal axes. The surgical instrument includes a force disc at the proximal end upon which a surgeon can exert a linear force which is transmitted to the distal end having a second tool such as a broach firmly attached thereto.
