A disc replacement device including a first body member with a convex articulation surface and a second body member with a concave articulation surface is disclosed. When operably positioned, the convex articulation surface engages the concave articulation surface to provide for movement therebetween. The disc replacement device also includes a first opening in the first body member and a second opening in the second body member, wherein the openings are angled and extends from the front aspects of the body members through the external surfaces. The disc replacement device further includes at least two bone fasteners for insertion into the first and second openings to secure the disc replacement device to a first and second vertebra. An interbody motion device and fusion implant, as well as a surgical method for implantation are also disclosed.

The present invention relates generally to a prosthetic spinal disc for replacing a damaged disc between two vertebrae of a spine and methods for inserting said discs. The intervertebral prosthetic discs are provided with connections for facilitating implantation and removal and features which enhance primary and secondary stability over time.

A modular acetabular cup assembly includes an acetabular cup, and a liner seated in the cup. The cup includes an end face, an apex opposite the end face, and a central axis extending between the apex and a center point of the end face. The liner includes an articular surface having a center of rotation which defines a pivot point of the acetabular cup assembly. In certain embodiments, the pivot point is laterally offset from the center point such that the end face is located between the pivot point and the apex.

A toe joint prosthesis and a fabrication method thereof are provided. The toe joint prosthesis includes a first bone nail prosthesis and a second bone nail prosthesis hinged with the first bone nail prosthesis, the first bone nail prosthesis includes a first bone nail configured to be provided in a bone marrow cavity and a second bone nail connected with the first bone nail and located outside the bone marrow cavity, and the second bone nail is hinged with the second bone nail prosthesis. In particular, a three-dimensional porous structure layer is formed on an outer surface of the first bone nail and/or the second bone nail and/or the second bone nail prosthesis. An outer surface of the toe joint prosthesis are endowed with better bone ingrowth ability and bone crawling ability, thereby making the fixation of the toe joint prosthesis more stable.

In certain embodiments, the pivot point is laterally offset from the center point such that the end face is located between the pivot point and the apex.

An orthopaedic prosthetic component is provided. The orthopaedic prosthetic component comprises a porous three-dimensional structure shaped to be implanted in a patient's body. The porous three-dimensional structure comprises a plurality of unit cells. At least one unit cell comprises a first geometric structure having a first geometry and comprising a plurality of first struts, and a second geometric structure having a second geometry and comprising a plurality of second struts connected to a number of the plurality of first struts to form the second geometric structure.

An extraction tool for removing an installed artificial disc from a spine is provided. The extraction tool is impacted between the artificial disc and the vertebrae and engages the artificial disc to allow a surgeon to remove the artificial disc from the spine.

A bone fusion method, system and device for insertion between bones that are to be fused together in order to replace degenerated discs and/or bones, for example, the vertebrae of a spinal column. The bone fusion device includes a body and an extendable plate. The bone fusion device is able to be inserted between or replace the vertebrae by using a minimally invasive procedure wherein the dimensions and/or other characteristics of the bone fusion device are selectable based on the type of minimally invasive procedure.

Medical implant surface treatments and methods are described. Such a surface treatment may provide an uneven texture that is configured to interlock with adjoining bone and/or an uneven texture on another implant, such as an augment for an acetabular cup for revision hip surgery. At least one of the uneven texture of the cup bone-facing surface and the uneven texture of the augment cup-facing surface may include a web of rods. The rods may be configured to interlock with each other when the two implants are urged together.
