A method comprising molding a first component from a first feedstock comprising a first material powder and a first binder, molding a second component from a second feedstock comprising a second material powder and a second binder, placing the first component and the second component in physical communication with each other in order to form an assembled component, removing the first binder and the second binder from the assembled component and performing a sintering operation on the assembled component so as to bond the first component and the second component together.

A tibial support of an artificial knee joint, comprising a main tibial support body (100) and a tibial support platform (200), wherein the main tibial support body (100) is wing-shaped, a central axis thereof being vertical to the tibial support platform (200). A plurality of hollow screw holes is provided at the upper part of the main body (100). The tibial support platform (200) is located above the main tibial support body (100). The surface of the tibial support platform (200) is an organic polymer material layer matching a tibial liner. The hollow screw holes in the tibial support are sealed by the polymer material layer. Because a tibial support of an artificial knee joint adopts a high-biocompatibility organic polymer material, physical machining is allowed in an operation, and meanwhile, the surface corrosion of the tibial support is reduced. Hollow screw holes are sealed by means of a polymer material layer, thereby inhibiting joint liquid from entering the holes, and reducing the transportation of particles. Recesses (201) are provided at positions, corresponding to the screw holes, on the polymer surface, thereby aiding in drilling holes and mounting screws in an operation.

The present application is generally directed to implantable systems, devices and related methods pertaining to spinal surgery. In particular, the present application discloses a frame and spacer system for inserting into a disc space. The frame and spacer system is of low profile. The frame can receive different fixation devices, including threaded and non-threaded fixation devices.

An endoprosthetic component which is set up in the implanted state to penetrate in a controlled manner into adjoining bone material.

An implant system for implantation at a joint, the implant system including an implant device, the implant device comprising a body portion having first and second ends, and a first elongate member, extending from the first or second end of the body portion, the implant system further comprising a corresponding fixation device for securing the first elongate member to a subject, the fixation device comprising at least one latching element, the first elongate member comprising at least one cooperating element, the at least one cooperating element being capable of cooperating with said at least one latching element of the fixation device in use.

A modular implant for performing an intervertebral fusion on adjacent vertebral bodies in a patient including a first spacer portion, a second spacer and a container having a first end and a second end, the first end of the container constructed to operably engage a first spacer and the second end of the container constructed to operably engage the second spacer.

Various embodiments of novel glenoid implant are disclosed. The glenoid implant includes: an articular body that includes an articulation surface and a bone-facing surface on opposite side of the articular body; a metal tray attached to the bone-facing surface; and one or more holes provided in the articular body extending from the articulation surface through the articular body and the metal tray to accommodate a screw therethrough. An implant system that includes the glenoid implant and a corresponding humeral head implant is also provided.

A provisional prosthetic system that replicates the characteristics of a corresponding, nonprovisional femoral prosthesis. The provisional prosthetic system may include a frame component and a shell component. The frame component of the provisional prosthetic system may be configured to be attached directly to a resected femur. In one exemplary embodiment, the frame component is impacted onto the resected femur to firmly seat therewith. Once the frame component is secured to the resected femur, a shell component of the provisional prosthetic system may be positioned on and secured to the frame component. In one exemplary embodiment, the frame component is made from a metallic material. This allows for the frame component to maintain the rigidity necessary to facilitate proper trialing. In another exemplary embodiment, the shell component is a plastic.
