| 20090306586 | LATERALLY-EXPANDABLE ACCESS CANNULA FOR ACCESSING THE INTERIOR OF A HIP JOINT - A laterally-expandable access cannula comprising: | 12-10-2009 |
| 20100268241 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACCESSING THE INTERIOR OF A HIP JOINT, INCLUDING THE PROVISION AND USE OF A NOVEL TELESCOPING ACCESS CANNULA AND A NOVEL TELESCOPING OBTURATOR - A telescoping access cannula comprising: | 10-21-2010 |
| 20100312179 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISTRACTING A JOINT, INCLUDING THE PROVISION AND USE OF A NOVEL JOINT-SPACING BALLOON CATHETER AND A NOVEL INFLATABLE PERINEAL POST - A method for creating space in a joint, the method comprising: | 12-09-2010 |
| 20110071545 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RE-ATTACHING THE LABRUM TO THE ACETABULUM, INCLUDING THE PROVISION AND USE OF A NOVEL SUTURE ANCHOR SYSTEM - Apparatus for securing a first object to a second object, the apparatus comprising: | 03-24-2011 |
| 20110077587 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGING JOINT IRRIGATION DURING HIP ARTHROSCOPY - A fluid management system comprising: | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110166579 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR MINIMALLY INVASIVE ACCESS INTO A JOINT - Devices and methods are disclosed for providing access to a central compartment of a hip joint. The devices can access the central compartment by distracting all or a portion of the labrum. The labrum can be distracted by advancing a device underneath the bottom edge of the labrum, and using the device to further distract the labrum. Some devices can move underneath the labrum to provide a gap for other devices to access the central compartment. | 07-07-2011 |

| 20100298850 | ATHERECTOMY CATHETER WITH ALIGNED IMAGER - An atherectomy catheter is provided for excising and imaging material in a body lumen. In one embodiment, the catheter comprises a catheter body, a cutting blade, and an imaging device. The cutting blade is mounted on the catheter body and configured to move between a first position and a second position relative to an aperture or cutting window. When the cutting blade is in the second position, the blade substantially closes the aperture on the catheter body. The imaging device which is mounted on or otherwise coupled to the cutting blade is configured to be in an imaging position when the cutting blade substantially closes the aperture or cutter window. This allows the imaging device to survey material within the cutting zone of the atherectomy catheter. By allowing the imaging device to view materials within this cutting zone, material may be imaged and then removed from the body lumen without having to reposition the catheter between each step. | 11-25-2010 |
