Orthopaedic prosthesis having support structure

A femoral orthopaedic prosthesis includes a metallic core extending from a proximal end to a distal tip. The metallic core includes a neck that is positioned at the proximal end and is configured to receive a prosthetic femoral ball. An elongated stem extends distally from the neck to the distal tip. The stem includes a proximal section extending distally from the neck, and a distal section that extends proximally from the distal tip. The elongated stem also includes a pair of spaced-apart beams that connect the proximal section to the distal section. An aperture is defined in the stem between the pair of spaced apart beams.

METHODS OF MANUFACTURING AND DESIGNING A LIGHTWEIGHT FEMORAL STEM FOR HIP IMPLANTS
20190321185 · 2019-10-24 ·

A method of manufacturing a femoral stem for a hip implant includes forming a femoral neck extending from a proximal end of the femoral stem towards a distal end of the femoral stem, forming an upper section connected to and extending from the femoral neck towards the distal end of the femoral stem, and forming a lower section connected to and extending from the upper section to the distal end of the femoral stem. Further, a method for designing a femoral stem for a hip implant includes generating a customized femoral stem model to match an information of a patient, generating at least one proximal-distal solid rib in the upper section, calculating density and stress distributions for an open lattice and for a closed lattice, and selecting a unit cell type and a pore size for the open lattice and the closed lattice to match a density and/or a stiffness of the patient's femur.

ORTHOPAEDIC HIP PROSTHESIS SURFACE PROTECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD

An orthopaedic system includes a femoral stem assembly having a protective casing or shell that protects one or more mating surfaces of the femoral stem component from incidental damage. The system includes a femoral head assembly having a protective casing or shell that protects one or more mating surfaces of the femoral head component from incidental damage. The system may also include a surgical instrument that is configured to detach or remove the protective casings from the prosthetic components of the femoral stem assembly and the femoral head assembly and secure the femoral stem component to the femoral head component. Methods of use and performing an orthopaedic surgical procedure are also disclosed.

Hip stem prosthesis

A hip stem prosthesis is provided for treating a deficient hip joint.

HIP PROSTHESIS

Embodiments of an implant assembly for hip replacement surgery is disclosed. In one embodiment, the implant assembly includes a femoral component comprising a stem member configured to extend into a femur of a patient and a locking member configured to extend through the femoral component to affix the stem member to the femur.

ARTIFICIAL HIP JOINT STEM AND STEM PROVIDING METHOD
20190231540 · 2019-08-01 · ·

An artificial hip joint stem is used to replace the damaged femoral head or acetabulum and includes a stem body having a head fixing part, which fixes a head, and an operating space horizontally opened at the upper side thereof. A head insertion hole connects to the operating space. A screw part is inserted into the head insertion hole. An operation converting part is inserted into the operating space to vertically move by the screw part when the operation converting part is connected to the screw part. A fixing bracket is inserted into the operating space such that the screw part is fixed to rotate without changing the depth thereof. A variable operating part is inserted into a supporting surface of the stem body to adjust a horizontal width by means of the operation converting part. A movable pin fixes the variable operating part to the operation converting part.

MODULAR FEMORAL PROSTHESIS SYSTEM FOR HIP ARTHROPLASTY

A modular femoral prosthesis system for an orthopaedic hip implant and method of use is disclosed. The prosthesis system includes a femoral stem component and a plurality of collar components configured to be selectively coupled to the stem component in a fixed position adjacent to a neck of the stem component. Each of the collar components includes a base and is configured to secure an assembled femoral prosthesis to a patient's surgically prepared femur to provide stability for the assembled femoral prosthesis.

Reverse hip system and method
10335283 · 2019-07-02 ·

A reverse hip prosthesis include an acetabular cup arrangement configured for insertion into an acetabulum of a patient and fixation therein, an acetabular ball configured for threaded attachment to the acetabular cup arrangement, a femoral stem configured for insertion into an intramedullary femoral canal of the patient, and a femoral cup arrangement configured for attachment to the femoral stem and to operatively receive the acetabular ball therein. The acetabular cup arrangement includes an anchor portion which becomes fixed to the patient's acetabulum and is the largest size suitable for the patient, and an insert which comes in different sizes and are connectable to the anchor portion, so that the most appropriate insert for the patient may be used. The acetabular cup arrangement and ball are interconnected with a threaded stem that also functions as an artificial Ligamentum Teres.

Offset adjustable neck length trial device and system for hip arthroplasty

Improved hip arthroplasty trial devices and hip arthroplasty trial systems are described. A hip arthroplasty trial device has a head member having a central axis and defining an inner chamber, a head member opening providing access to the inner chamber, and a cavity extending inward from the outer surface of the head member. A rotatable member is disposed in the inner chamber and along an axis between the central axis and one side of the head member. The cavity extends along an axis between the central axis and another, opposite side of the head member. A spacer is disposed within the head member opening and is moveable between a spacer first position and a spacer second position. Rotational movement of the rotatable member moves the spacer from the spacer first position to the spacer second position.
