HUMERAL AND GLENOID ARTICULAR SURFACE IMPLANT SYSTEMS AND METHODS
One embodiment of the present disclosure provides a humeral implant. The humeral implant includes a tray including a body defining a bone facing recess and a liner recess, said bone facing recess including a ring surface and a convex surface, wherein the ring surface has a profile substantially corresponding to a profile of an outer ring of bone in an excision site of a patient; and wherein said convex surface has a profile substantially corresponding to a profile of a concave socket formed in the excision site. The humeral implant also includes a liner including a body defining a load bearing surface and a tray interface surface, said tray interface surface being configured to be at least partially received in said liner recess of said tray such that said implant is coupled to said tray.
Shoulder arthroplasty system method with combination humeral sizer, trial, and guide
A method of implanting a humeral component includes accessing a humerus and resecting a head portion of the humerus to form a resected surface. The method further includes selecting a first combination sizer and guide device having an outer surface sized complementary to a desired implant head size, positioning the selected first combination sizer and guide device on the resected surface, guiding placement of a guide pin in the humerus with the first combination sizer and guide device, guiding a reamer with the placed guide pin to form a reamed cavity in the humerus, positioning an anchoring portion of a humeral implant base portion in the reamed cavity, positioning the first combination sizer and guide device on the base portion, removing the first combination sizer and guide device from the base portion, and positioning an implant head on the base portion.
SIZING INSTRUMENT AND PUNCH FOR USE IN A SURGICAL PROCEDURE TO IMPLANT A STEMLESS HUMERAL COMPONENT
A stemless humeral component for replacing the humeral head of a patient's humerus includes a support flange having a number of cantilevered legs extending distally away from a bottom surface thereof. Instruments and methods for surgically installing the stemless humeral component are also disclosed.
PATIENT SPECIFIC STEMLESS PROSTHESIS ANCHOR COMPONENTS
A stemless humeral anchor (10) includes a first end (12) configured to be embedded in a proximal portion of a humerus and a second end (14); a mating portion (16) for an articular component; a transversely extending collar (20); and a rotation control feature (22, 22A) for resisting rotation when the stemless humeral anchor is implanted. A void filling protrusion (24) can extend circumferentially from rotation control feature and can include a porous shell (26), in which a void filling component (28) can be disposed. The rotation control feature can comprise arms. One or more arms (22A) can have a larger radial extent than the others (22). A prosthesis assembly includes a base member (104) that has a helical structure (224) and one or more pathways (300). The pathway is accessible from a proximal end and is directed distally through the helical structure. The pathway is located inward of an outer periphery of the helical structure. The pathway extends in a space between successive portions of the helical structure. The prosthesis assembly includes a locking device (108) that has a support member (132) and an arm (110) that projects away from the support member. The arm is disposed in the pathway when the support member is disposed adjacent to the proximal end of the base member. The arm is disposed through bone in the space between successive portions of the helical structure when the prosthesis assembly is implanted.
Determining implantation configuration for a prosthetic component or application of a resurfacing tool
Systems and methods for modifying a shoulder joint configuration exhibiting wear that take into account resultant of forces responsible for the wear of the glenoid surface from geometric characteristics of wear.
Osteochondral local prosthetic insert
The present invention refers to an osteochondral local prosthetic insert for partial humeral joint reconstitution by reconstitution of the bone anatomical sphericity to treat bone lesions, in particular Hill-Sachs lesions. The local osteochondral prosthetic insert is a rigid monolithic body having a truncated-cone shape, the proximal diameter greater than the distal diameter, the proximal end of convex shape and rounded at the corners, and a tapered distal end. The lateral surface of the insert shows in the middle-distal part a non-return shaping that allows the maintenance of the position defined in the surgical operation. The proximal end is convex in order to better adapt to the local bone sphericity and has recesses for the manipulation and positioning through dedicated tools.
HUMERAL IMPLANT ANCHOR SYSTEM
A stemless humeral shoulder assembly having a base member and an anchor advanceable into the base member. The base member can include a distal end that can be embedded in bone and a proximal end that can be disposed at a bone surface. The base member can also have a plurality of spaced apart arms projecting from the proximal end to the distal end. The anchor can project circumferentially into the arms and into a space between the arms. When the anchor is advanced into the base member, the anchor can be exposed between the arms. A recess can project distally from a proximal end of the anchor to within the base member. The recess can receive a mounting member of an anatomical or reverse joint interface.
TOTAL SHOULDER PROSTHESIS
The invention relates to a total prosthesis for the shoulder joint. It is of the socalled reverse type with a concave component in the humerus and a convex component on the scapula.
Minimally Invasive Shoulder Implant and Method
A method of implanting a prosthetic stemless shoulder implant may include making an incision into a patient's shoulder area of a patient and passing a cutting instrument through a rotator cuff interval of the patient. A central portion of the native humeral head may be resected and removed so that a central void remains. The same or another cutting instrument may be inserted through the rotator cuff interval and into the central void. Medial and lateral portions of the native humeral head adjacent the central void may be resected and removed. A base of a prosthesis may be implanted into a proximal portion of the humerus after passing the base through the rotator cuff interval, and two humeral head portions may be inserted through the rotator cuff interval and coupled to the base and to one another.
