A system and methods are provided for treating radial head fractures. The system includes an implant, a sterile instrument kit for radial head arthroplasty, and a head sizer and assembly tray for sizing and assembling implants. The implant includes a head that is coupled with a stem. The head is adapted to be placed into sliding contact with a capitellum of the radiocapitellar joint. The stem is configured to be inserted into a hole reamed into a medullary canal of the radial head. The sterile instrument kit comprises a multiplicity of instruments including any one or more of trial heads and trial stems, a starter awl, a reamer, a planar, an inserter cap, and an impactor. The instruments are configured for implanting the implant into the radiocapitellar joint such that the implant restores biomechanical properties of the joint.

An orthopedic guide that can comprise a base, a first attachment and a second attachment is disclosed. The base can have a plurality of connection features spaced from one another along a longitudinal extent. The base can be configured to seat on a rim of a bone. The first attachment can be selectively coupled to the base at a first end portion thereof and can be selectively coupled to the base at a second end portion thereof. The first attachment can be arch shaped when coupled to the base. The first attachment can define a first plurality of apertures. The second attachment can be selectively coupled to the base at a first end portion thereof and can be selectively coupled to the base at a second end portion thereof. The second attachment can be arch shaped when coupled to the base. The first attachment can define a second plurality of apertures.

Methods and apparatuses including a patellar implant are disclosed. The patellar implant can include a member, an articulation component and a connection mechanism. The member can be configured to engage a osteotimized surface of a patella. The articulation component can have an articulation surface that can be configured to articulate with a femoral prosthesis along a patellar groove. The connection mechanism can connect the articulation component with the member and can be configured to allow for at least one of removal and translational movement of the articulation component relative to the member and patella.

An adjustable spinal fusion intervertebral implant is provided that can comprise upper and lower body portions that can each have proximal and distal wedge surf aces disposed at proximal and distal ends thereof. An actuator shaft disposed intermediate the upper and lower body portions can be actuated to cause proximal and distal protrusions to converge towards each other and contact the respective ones of the proximal and distal wedge surfaces. Such contact can thereby transfer the longitudinal movement of the proximal and distal protrusions against the proximal and distal wedge surfaces to cause the separation of the upper and lower body portions, thereby expanding the intervertebral implant. The upper and lower body portions can have side portions that help facilitate linear translational movement of the upper body portion relative to the lower body portion.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to a Sizer, Introducer, and Cutting Template Device. Embodiments find particular use as a sizer, introducer, and cutting template device for an orbital floor implant surgery. The disclosed device allows a surgeon or other practitioner to use a single component for sizing, introducing, and cutting a template for an orbital floor implant.

A measuring adapter (1) for a measuring instrument for use in connection with hip prosthesis surgery is provided. The measuring adapter (1) comprises a measuring head (2) and a connector (3); the measuring head (2) comprises a front end (2a), a rear end (2b) and an upper surface (4a). The upper surface (4a) is convex. The measuring head (2), along an axial direction of the measuring adapter (1), further comprises a central through-going bore (5) adapted to receive an actuating rod (8). The measuring head (2) is adapted to expand from a relaxed state to an expanded state when the actuating rod (8) is axially displaced in the central through-going bore (5); and the measuring head (2) is divided into at least two separate sections (6). The connector (3) is hollow and slotted at one end in axial direction of the measuring head (2) into a number of legs (7), the number of legs (7) corresponding to the number of the at least two separate sections (6) of the measuring head (2). The legs (7) of the connector (3) are each connected to one of the at least two separate sections (6) of the measuring head (2) on the rear end (2b) of the measuring head (2). A securing arrangement (18) is provided at the opposite end of the connector (3) relative to the connection to the measuring head (2), and at least a part of the upper surface (4a) of the measuring head (2) is adapted to, in one expanded state, adopt the shape of a spherical cap or a convex shape comprising at least a spherical segment. A measuring adapter (1) is also provided that comprises windows or through-going holes (10) or windows.

Orthopedic implant sizing instruments, systems, and methods for use during arthroplasty procedures, for example, radial head arthroplasty procedures, are provided. The sizing instruments include at least one sizer head having at least one visualization window or slot provided therethrough for allowing a user to visualize associated surgical structures or surfaces to ensure proper joint reduction. The orthopedic implant sizing instruments, systems, and/or related methods can utilize sizer heads and/or windows having a plurality of different sizes and/or shapes.
