An implant may include a body having a first portion and a second portion and a structural member having a central member curve. In addition, the structural member may be exposed on an outer surface of the implant. Further, the central member curve may include a winding segment, and the winding segment of the central member curve may wind around a fixed path extending from the first portion of the body to the second portion of the body. Also, the central member curve may make one or more full turns around the fixed path. And, the structural member may have a member diameter at the winding segment, wherein the winding segment has a winding diameter corresponding with the full turn around the fixed path and the member diameter is greater than the winding diameter.

An orthopedic prosthesis for use in a hip replacement surgery includes an implantable stem component. The implantable stem component includes a core and a shell extending over the core. The shell includes a polymeric material and is configured to receive a femoral head component. Metal foam may extend over a portion of the shell.

The modular stem component may include a shaft portion, a head, and a sleeve. The shaft portion is configured for receipt within the intramedullary canal of a bone and the head is configured to receive another component of a modular prosthetic system, such as a femoral neck, thereon. In one exemplary embodiment, the head extends radially around at least a portion of the stem and includes a rib defining a flange extending therefrom. The sleeve, which is formed as an independent part of the modular stem component and is made at least partially of a highly porous biomaterial, includes opposing ends and has a bore extending therethrough. The bore is configured to facilitate sliding receipt of the sleeve on the head.

Method for manufacturing a bone pin for connection to a bone, particularly for fixing an implant to a bone, the bone pin having an implant contacting part arranged to contact the implant in connected situation and a bone contacting part arranged to engage the bone in connected situation, wherein the method comprises the steps of:—providing bone information which is indicative for the bone which the bone contacting part is arranged to engage;—providing a bone contacting part which is customized on the basis of the bone information for engaging said bone;—providing an implant contacting part; and—assembling the bone contacting part and the implant contacting part for manufacturing the pin.

An implant including a first segment at a first end, a second segment at a second end, and an intermediate segment coupled to the first segment on a first end and coupled to the second segment on a second end. The first segment may include an insertion tip at the first end of the implant and a body portion adjacent to the insertion tip, the insertion tip extending out from the body portion. The second segment may include an end member at the second end of the implant and a body portion adjacent to the end member, the end member extending out from the body portion. The second segment may include a plurality of tip portions spaced about a longitudinal axis of the second segment, and the tip portions each including at least one barb formed by a taper portion and an engagement portion extending radially into the tip portion.

Systems, devices, and methods are provided for orthopedic implants. The implants may include a base member, such as an acetabular shell or an augment, that is configured to couple with an augment, flange cup, mounting member, or any other suitable orthopedic attachment. Mounting members include, for example, flanges, blades, hooks, and plates. In some embodiments, the orthopedic attachments may be adjustably positionable about the base member or other attachments, thereby providing modularity for assembling and implanting the device, and various securing and/or locking mechanisms may be used between the components of the implant.

A device adapted to be positioned between two bone regions, the device comprising a body having a stabilising arrangement configured such that bone growing from one bone region toward the other engages the stabilising arrangement of the device

Tibial prosthesis having one or more fins for use in a total or unicompartmental knee athroplasty procedure are disclosed. The one or more fins can be adapted to fix a tibial prosthesis to the tibia and can engage with corresponding channels formed in the resected tibia. Additionally, intercondylar components and methods for use in a total or unicompartmental knee athroplasty procedure are disclosed. The intercondylar component can be integral with or attached to a baseplate configured for attachment to a partially resected proximal surface of the tibia that retains at least a portion of the intercondylar eminence and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and/or the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). Inner surfaces of the intercondylar component can be configured to engage with at least a portion of the intercondylar eminence remaining with the partially resected tibia. In an example, the intercondylar component or the one or more fins can be formed of a porous material, such as to facilitate bone growth.

The invention relates to a knee joint prosthesis comprising a femoral component (1) and a tibial component (2), each having a front face constituting the joint and a rear face (4) facing the bone, and a polyethylene (PE) liner (3). In order to allow the knee joint prosthesis to be implanted without metal and without cement, the femoral component (1) and the tibial component (2) consist of a full ceramic material and both components (1, 2) have integrated porous osseointegrative rear faces (4) facing the bone.

A bone graft delivery system for delivering graft material into a surgical site. The delivery system includes an elongate hollow tube constructed to receive the bone graft material and having a hollow interior and indicia formed on an exterior surface of the elongate hollow tube. The delivery system also includes a plunger adapted to extend in the elongate hollow tube and to form a substantially congruent fit with the hollow interior of the elongate hollow tube such that the plunger is precluded from rotating within the elongate hollow tube. The plunger is adapted to urge bone graft material through the elongate hollow tube to deliver bone graft material through an opening thereof.
