A joint replacement implant may include a shaft having a proximal end, a distal end, and a threaded shaft portion, a helical thread disposed about the shaft defining a length of the threaded shaft portion and including a concave undercut surface angled towards one of the proximal end and the distal end of the shaft, and an attachment feature at the proximal end of the joint replacement implant. The attachment feature may be configured to couple an articular member to the joint replacement implant. The articular member may include at least one artificial articular surface that may be shaped to replace at least a portion of a natural articular surface of a joint of a patient.

A human shoulder replacement that includes a housing with a narrow bearing articulator that can rotate to achieve the range of motion of a normal shoulder joint. The narrow bearing articulator contains a partially spherical bearing. The narrow bearing articulator fits into a housing that itself is recessed into a cavity cut into the Glenoid Fossa. The housing is typically a short cylindrically shaped receptacle that is screwed into the bone. The bearing has a shaft that passes through a drilled hole in the Humerus. The shaft is bolted at its distal end with a head that can be recessed into the Humerus. A penetrating screw is driven through a plate attached to the Humerus, through the Humerus itself, and through a hole in the shaft in the interior of the Humerus.

An implant for repairing an articular cartilage defect site including an implant fixation portion with an upper segment and at least one bone interfacing segment and a top articulating portion with an articulating surface and an engagement surface. The upper segment includes a supporting plate with a first locking mechanism segment. The engagement surface includes a second locking mechanism segment. The first locking mechanism segment with at least two channels is structured to couple to the second locking mechanism segment with at least two protrusions. The at least one bone interfacing segment structured for insertion into the articular cartilage defect site. An implant including an implant fixation portion, a top articulating portion, and a locking mechanism with a first locking segment coupled to the upper segment and a second locking segment coupled to the at least one engagement surface and structured to couple to the first locking segment.

Provided is an implant configured for implantation in a bone segment, the implant including a first part that includes a hydrogel portion and a porous material portion, and a second part that includes an annular rim and a bottom that at least partially define a cavity configured to receive the porous material portion of the first part, and a barb extending from the bottom of the second part in a direction away from the cavity.

Pedicle-based intradiscal fixation devices, systems, instruments, and methods thereof. A pedicle-based intradiscal implant for stabilizing an inferior vertebra and a superior vertebra may include a bendable rod configured to engage bone, a bone fastener defining a channel for receiving the bendable rod, and a locking cap for securing the bone fastener and the bendable rod. The implant may be positioned through a pedicle of an inferior vertebra and the bendable rod may be deployable into the vertebral body of the inferior vertebra, through the disc space, and into the vertebral body of the superior vertebra to stabilize the spine.

A laminoplasty implant system includes a spacer implant configured for insertion into an interlaminal space defined by a cut into a lamina of a vertebra. The spacer implant includes a first end and a second end, and a tunnel extending axially between the first end and the second end. The laminoplasty implant system also includes a single fastener implant configured for insertion through the tunnel when the spacer implant is inserted into the interlaminal space. The fastener implant includes a head and a fastener portion. The head is configured to abut against a portion of the spacer implant and to extend axially from the first end into the lamina of the vertebra. The fastener portion is configured to extend through the tunnel and to extend axially from the second end into a lateral mass of the vertebra.

An implantable medical device, such as an intervertebral spacer, may comprise a polymeric component and a metallic component. The metallic component can contain both porous metal and substantially-solid metal. The polymeric material can contain particles of an osseointegrative material. The metallic component can be more protruding toward bone than the polymeric component while having a smaller dimension of roughness than the polymeric component. In embodiments, the pin may press-fit against substantially solid metal. The porous metal may surround solid metal which in turn may surround the pin. The pin may have a press-fit with metal and a looser fit with polymeric component, if the metal components and polymeric components are trapped. A pin may connect superior and inferior metal components by a press-fit. The central opening may be exposed to porous metal and also to substantially-solid metal and to polymer. Specific geometries of implants are disclosed.

A sacroiliac joint implant system includes a primary implant configured to be received in a sacroiliac joint of a patient and a secondary implant configured to couple with the primary implant. The primary implant includes a body extending from a proximal end to a distal end and a plurality of threads extending from the body. The secondary implant includes a first anchor configured to anchor within a sacrum of the patient and a second anchor configured to anchor within an ilium of the patient.

Orthopedic implants, systems, instruments, and methods. A bi-portal lumbar interbody fusion system may include an expandable interbody implant and minimally invasive pedicle-based intradiscal fixation implants. The interbody and intradiscal implants may be installed with intelligent instrumentation capable of repeatably providing precision placement of the implants. The bi-portal system may be robotically-enabled to guide the instruments and implants along desired access trajectories to the surgical area.
