Abstract:
Surgical instruments for performing wedge-shaped osteotomies are disclosed herein. One surgical instrument includes a body with a distal end, a proximal end, a bottom surface, and a top surface including a slope extending upward and along a single plane from the distal end to the proximal end. The surgical instrument further includes multiple columns of cutting blades positioned on the top surface in which each of the cutting blades are spaced apart and extend vertically along at least a portion of the slope from the distal end to the proximal end. Another surgical instrument includes the cutting blades positioned in multiple rows of cutting blades on the top surface such that the multiple rows of cutting blades extend along the slope from the distal end to the proximal end and each cutting blade in the plurality of cutting blades extends horizontally across the top surface.
