Abstract:
1. An orthopedic bone cutter, comprising: a) a frame comprising opposed first and second sidewalls extending from a proximal frame end to a distal frame end, a rotational axis extending perpendicularly therethrough, a first imaginary plane co-planar with the first sidewall and a second imaginary plane co-planar with the second sidewall, wherein the first and second sidewalls are positioned at an angular relationship with respect to the rotational axis so that the first and second imaginary planes intersect the rotational axis at a bone cutter apex point positioned at the distal frame end; b) a first cutting blade comprising a first blade portion extending from a first proximal base edge to a first distal blade end having a curved perimeter, and a first cutting surface outwardly extending from the curved distal blade end; and c) wherein the first blade is affixed to an exterior surface of either the respective first or second frame sidewalls so that the first cutting surface is angled towards the bone cutter apex point.
