COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED SURGICAL PLANNING BASED ON BONE LOSS DURING ORTHOPEDIC REVISION SURGERY
A surgical assistance system may obtain a pre-revision model of a bone of a patient. The pre-revision model of the bone represents a pre-revision state of the bone after a prior orthopedic surgery on the bone. In this example, an orthopedic prosthesis was attached to the bone during the prior orthopedic surgery. Additionally, the surgical assistance system may obtain intra-revision imaging data of the bone. The intra-revision imaging data represents an intra-revision state of the bone during the orthopedic revision surgery after removal of the orthopedic prosthesis from the bone. The surgical assistance system may determine, based on the intra revision imaging data, damaged and intact parts of the bone. The surgical assistance system may then generate a second intra-revision model of the bone by modifying the pre-revision model of the bone to exclude damaged parts of the bone.
DEVICES AND TECHNIQUES FOR HIP REVISION SURGERY
Piezoelectric osteotomy devices and corresponding systems and methods for removing an acetabular cup or shell from a patient's acetabulum are disclosed. In one embodiment, the piezoelectric osteotomy device includes a piezoelectric element to actuate a cutting tip on an armature. In some such embodiments, the cutting tip may be extended and/or retracted to facilitate cutting of bone around an acetabular cup. The armature may include a fluid output port located proximate the cutting tip to mitigate heat generated by the cutting tip. In one embodiment, the piezoelectric osteotomy device is arranged and configured to provide constant current adjustment.
Femur plate
A femur plate is provided, the femur plate comprising a first end portion anatomically pre-formed to conform to a trochanter region of the femur and a second end portion anatomically pre-formed to conform to a condyle region of the femur, wherein the second end portion comprises at least one first opening configured to receive a bone fastener. The femur plate further comprises an elongate shaft extending from the first end portion to the second end portion, the elongate shaft comprising at least one second opening configured to receive a bone fastener. Furthermore, a periprosthetic implant system comprising the femur plate and a method of implanting the femur plate are provided.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FORMING A CUSTOM CEMENT-ON-CEMENT ARTICULATING HIP SPACER
Aspects of the present disclosure include a device for forming a custom cement cast of an acetabular implant for a patient. The device includes an elongated handle, and a head coupled to a proximal end of the elongated handle. The head includes a body, a circumferential lip, and a nipple. The body of the head is shaped as a spherical cap, and includes a circular base and an apex. The circumferential lip extends radially outwardly from the circular base of the body. The nipple extends from the apex of the body in a direction perpendicular to the circular base.
PAD FOR ACETABULAR BONE REVISION AND RECONSTRUCTION AND FIXING STRUCTURE FOR PAD AND ACETABULAR CUP PROSTHESIS
The present disclosure relates to the field of medical instruments, in particular to a pad for acetabular bone revision and reconstruction and a fixing structure for a pad and an acetabular cup prosthesis. The pad is located between an acetabular cup prosthesis and the acetabular bone, and is connected to the acetabular cup prosthesis and the acetabular bone respectively. The pad includes a first component and a second component which has the same or different radius and shape as or from the radius and shape of the first component; the first component is movably connected with the second component; and the shape of the connected first component and second component is matched with a defective part of the acetabular bone.
ARTHROPLASTY IMPLANT SYSTEMS WITH STEMLESS IMPLANTS
Arthroplasty implant systems and methods are provided for restoring the functionality of a joint. The arthroplasty implant systems may include a threaded cup having a cylindrical shaped body and a flange. A thread may be provided on the cylindrical shaped body. The thread is configured to engage a bone, and the flange is configured to engage a cortical rim of the bone.
TOTAL KNEE JOINT PROSTHESIS FOR REVISION AFTER A UNICOMPARTMENTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY
The present application relates to the technical field of biomaterials for implant and intervention, and particularly to a total knee joint prosthesis for revision after a unicompartmental knee arthroplasty including a tibial plateau and a tibial pad mounted on the tibial plateau; the tibial plateau includes an installation platform and an installation column fixedly connect to a side of the installation platform; a filling block is provided on a side of the installation platform towards the installation column; and the filling block is configured to be placed at a side of the human tibia where a unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is performed.
ELBOW PROSTHESIS
An elbow prosthesis according to the present teachings can include a stem structure and an articulating component. The stem structure can be operable to be positioned in a bone of a joint. The stem structure can include a stem portion that is operable to be positioned in the bone and a C-shaped body portion having a first retaining mechanism formed thereon. The articulating component can have a second retaining mechanism formed thereon. One of the first and second retaining mechanisms can comprise an extension portion and a first anti-rotation portion. The other retaining mechanism can comprise a receiving portion and a second anti-rotation portion. The articulating component can be advanced from an insertion position to an assembled position, such that the first and second mechanisms cooperatively interlock to inhibit translation and rotation of the articulating component relative to the C-shaped body portion of the stem structure.
Femur Plate
A femur plate is provided, the femur plate comprising a first end portion anatomically pre-formed to conform to a trochanter region of the femur and a second end portion anatomically pre-formed to conform to a condyle region of the femur, wherein the second end portion comprises at least one first opening configured to receive a bone fastener. The femur plate further comprises an elongate shaft extending from the first end portion to the second end portion, the elongate shaft comprising at least one second opening configured to receive a bone fastener. Furthermore, a periprosthetic implant system comprising the femur plate and a method of implanting the femur plate are provided.
ELBOW PROSTHESIS
An elbow prosthesis includes a stem structure and an articulating component. The stem structure is operable to be positioned in a bone of a joint and includes a stem portion and a C-shaped body portion. The stem portion is operable to be positioned in the bone. The C-shaped body portion includes a first articulating surface bound by a medial wall and a lateral wall. The medial and lateral walls are separated by a first distance. The articulating component includes a second articulating surface positioned between a medial side surface and a lateral side surface. The medial and lateral side surfaces are separated by a second distance that is less than the first distance. The second articulating surface is configured to slidably communicate in a medial/lateral direction along the first articulating surface of the C-shaped body portion.
