ROBOTIC SURGERY SYSTEM FOR AUGMENTED ARTHROPLASTY PROCEDURES

A method includes obtaining a surgical plan comprising a first planned position of an implant and a second planned position of an augment relative to a bone. The augment is planned to provide support between the bone and the implant. The method also includes preparing the bone to receive both the implant in the first planned position and the augment in the second planned position by controlling a robotic device based on the first planned position of the implant and the second planned position of the augment.

An acetabular prosthesis for use in a hip arthroplasty surgical procedure includes an acetabular cup cage assembly including an outer cup cage and an inner cup cage. The outer cup cage includes a hemispherical cup and a mounting flange. Similarly, the inner cup cage also includes a hemispherical cup and a corresponding mounting flange. The hemispherical cup of the inner cup cage is sized to be received into the hemispherical cup of the outer cup cage, and the two cup cages are rotatable relative to each other to position the mounting flanges into a desired position on a hip bone of a patient.

Robotic surgery system for augmented hip arthroplasty procedures

A system for facilitating arthroplasty procedures includes a robotic device, a reaming tool configured to interface with the robotic device, and a processing circuit communicable with the robotic device. The processing circuit is configured to obtain a surgical plan comprising a first planned position of an implant cup and a second planned position of an implant augment relative to a bone of a patient, determine a planned bone modification configured to prepare the bone to receive the implant cup in the first planned position and the implant augment in the second planned position, generate one or more virtual objects based on the planned bone modification, control the robotic device to constrain the cutting tool with the one or more virtual objects while the cutting tool interfaces with the robotic device and is operated to modify the bone in accordance with the planned bone modification.

FLEXIBLE ACETABULAR IMPLANT

An acetabular cage or device is disclosed. In one embodiment, the acetabular cage includes a cup portion configured for implantation in an acetabulum and a flange extending from the cup portion. The flange including a first, bone contacting surface configured to face bony tissue surrounding the acetabulum when the cup portion is implanted into the acetabulum and a second, top surface opposite the first surface. The flange includes a flexible portion and a fixation portion, the fixation portion including one or more fixation features configured to facilitate fixation of the flange to the bony tissue surrounding the acetabulum. The flexible portion is arranged and configured to enable the flange, and hence the fixation portion, to move relative to the cup portion to facilitate placement of the flange relative to the bony tissue.
