#$%^&*AU2012200983B220140501.pdf#####RADIO FREQUENCY-BASED SURGICAL IMPLANT FIXATION APPARATUS Abstract A radio frequency-based surgical implant fixation apparatus (10) is provided and includes a housing (11) and a shaft (18) that is operably coupled to housing (11,. A longitudinal axis is defined through the shaft (18). The housing (11) is adapted to connect to a source of electrosurgical energy. An approximator assembly (12) has an elongated rod (16) that is coaxially coupled to the shaft (18) and is configured to reciprocate therethrough from an extended position to a retracted position. A plurality of delivery arms (14) is op rably coupled to a distal end of the elongated rod (16). The delivery arms (14) are configured to releasably receive a portion of a surgical implant (24) and selectively connect to the energy source to transmit electrosurgical energy to the surgical implant (24) to fuse the surgical implant (24) to tissue upon actuation thereof. 6017781-I:KEH1/4 LLU C)~ _ C J >；i 0 LLU C) CCd) LLJ C:) >；- i
