A collar arranged to couple to a prosthetic component for implantation at the end of a long bone, the prosthetic component having a distal portion arranged to couple to the bone and a proximal neck portion arranged to couple to an articulation component. The collar comprises a plate including a neck hole to receive a neck portion, such that the collar can rotate about the neck portion. The collar further comprises a plurality of attachment portions for coupling the plate to bone fragments or soft tissues. The collar is lockable to the neck portion to prevent further rotation. A prosthesis comprising a combination of a collar, a prosthetic component and an articulation component, and a surgical method of using the collar are also disclosed.

A reverse modular humeral implant for implantation into a humerus that includes a natural humeral shaft and a natural humeral head. The implant includes a humeral stem implantable into the natural humeral shaft, and an adapter couplable to the humeral stem, the adapter including an anchoring projection configured to be coupled to a convex bearing.

The present disclosure relates to a shoulder prosthesis comprising a glenoidal component having a glenoidal articulation surface and a humeral component having a humeral articulation surface, and a separate mobile glenohumeral bearing component comprising a glenoidal bearing surface and a humeral bearing surface arranged on opposite sides of the glenohumeral bearing component. The glenoidal bearing surface contacts in an implanted state the glenoidal articulation surface and/or the humeral bearing surface contacts in an implanted state the humeral articulation surface. At least one of the glenoidal and humeral bearing surfaces is concave. The glenohumeral bearing component is disposed in an implanted state between the glenoidal component and the humeral component. Both the glenoidal and humeral articulation surfaces are convex.

A modular reverse shoulder orthopaedic implant includes a humeral stem component and a separable fracture epiphysis component having a number of suture holes formed therein. The fracture epiphysis component is configured to receive a number of sutures for surgically repairing a proximal humeral fracture.

An orthopaedic implant can replace a joint in a patient. The orthopaedic implant includes a first component having a first component surface and a second component having a second component surface. The first component surface and the second component surface mate at an interface. The first component surface includes a metal substrate, a nanotextured surface, a ceramic coating, and a transition zone. The nanotextured surface is disposed directly upon the metal substrate and has surface features in a size of 10.sup.−9 meters. The ceramic coating conforms to the nanotextured surface and includes a plurality of bio-active sites configured to attract and retain calcium and phosphorous cations. The transition zone is disposed between the metal substrate and the ceramic coating. The transition zone includes a concentration gradient transitioning from the metal substrate to the ceramic coating and there is no distinct interface between the metal substrate and the ceramic coating.

A prosthetic shoulder implant system includes a prosthetic humeral implant and a version device. The humeral implant includes a catch member aperture and a first locking pin aperture. The version device includes a rotatable member with a body and a flexure member, and a plate with a catch member and a projection contacting the flexure member. A first locking pin extends from the version device and is adapted to mate with the first locking pin aperture. In an unlocked condition of the system, the rotatable member has a first rotated position in which the flexure member is in an uncompressed state and the plate is in a first position, and in a locked condition of the system, the rotatable member has a second rotated position in which the flexure member is in a compressed state and the plate is in a second position proximal of the first position.

The system and method serves in facilitating replacement of comminuted bone fractures or portions thereof adjacent bone joints. The system and method employs a prosthesis to replace at least a portion of the comminuted bone fractures. The prosthesis serves in reproducing the articular surface of the portion or portions of the comminuted bone fractures that are replaced. In doing so, the prosthesis serves in restoring joint viability and corresponding articulation thereof.

A trial neck piece for a joint endoprosthesis is designed for temporary arrangement on a separate shaft body (60) that is insertable into a tubular bone (9). It comprises a fastening region (12) which can be plugged temporarily onto a head part (61) of the shaft body (60) by means of a plug connection (l l), and a neck region (IO) for receiving a joint element (19) of the joint endoprosthesis. The trial neck piece (I) is designed as a separate, plug-on attachment piece which, with its fastening region (12), can be plugged with form-fit engagement onto the head part (61) and locked. A latching device (2) is provided which comprises a plurality of latching stages for different height stages of the trial neck piece (I). The invention thus makes available an easily attachable trial neck piece which can be arranged in a defined manner in different height positions in order, on the one hand, to obtain a secure and defined arrangement and, on the other hand, to permit the setting of different heights. The invention further relates to an arrangement with a trial neck piece and with an excavating tool, in particular a reamer, and to an instrument set comprising a trial neck piece and an insertion instrument.

An inserter includes a first end, a second end, and a body extending between the first end and the second end. A first impacting surface is disposed at the first end, and a second impacting surface is disposed adjacent to the second end. An interface disposed at the second end and is configured to engage an implant. The first impacting surface is configured to direct a first impacting force along the body of the inserter in a first direction, and the second impacting surface is configured to direct a second impacting force along the body in a second direction that is different from the first direction. Methods of use also are disclosed.

Various embodiments disclosed herein relate to stemmed and stemless humeral anchors for use in shoulder arthroplasty procedures. For example, the humeral anchor can include a first end, a second end, and an interior surface extending between the first end and the second end. The interior surface can be disposed about a recess disposed between the first end and the second end. The recess can be configured to secure a coupling of a shoulder articular body directly to the interior surface.
