A medical device for implantation in a hip joint of a patient; the hip joint having a caput femur integrated with a collum femur having a collum and caput center axis, extending longitudinal along the collum and caput femur, in the center thereof. The medical device comprises an elongated portion adapted to at least partially replace the collum femur, wherein said elongated portion is adapted to be at least one of integrated in and connected to a prosthetic spherical portion adapted to replace the caput femur, and wherein said prosthetic spherical portion in turn is adapted to be movably placed in a prosthetic replacement for the acetabulum having at least one extending portion for clasping said prosthetic spherical portion. Said elongated portion comprises a restricting portion adapted to restrict the motion range of the spherical portion in relation to said prosthetic replacement for the acetabulum. Said restricting portion of said elongated portion comprises at least one recess adapted to receive a portion of said prosthetic artificial acetabulum, when implanted, to enable an advantageous motion range in relation to said prosthetic replacement for the acetabulum.

A method of performing joint arthroplasty includes preparing a flat surface on a long bone, providing an instrument having a body and a punch extending from the body, the punch including a portion thereof having a shape similar to a stem of an implant, positioning a stop on the flat surface, rotating the stop with respect to the surface of the long bone based upon an indicia on one of the body and the stop so as to position the punch rotationally with respect to the surface to a desired orientation when the instrument is at least partially inserted into the stop, using the instrument to form a cavity in the long bone with the punch at the desired rotational orientation with the instrument inserted at least partially within the stop, the cavity having a shape similar to the stem of the implant, and implanting the stem into the cavity.

A method for preparing a sacroiliac joint for stabilization which may include approaching a posterior aspect of the sacroiliac joint inferior to a PSIS with a defect-creating tool assembly, creating a defect in the sacrum and the ilium defined by at least one noncircular cross-sectional shape, delivering an implant having a body with a length extending between proximal and distal ends, the body including at least one cylindrical body with a longitudinal axis and an opening at the proximal end aligned with the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical body, a pattern of openings spaced along the cylindrical body and a planar member coupled with and extending along the cylindrical body. The implant may be implanted with the length generally following a plane of the sacroiliac joint such that it is advanced from a generally posterior to anterior approach while the body of the implant bridges the joint.

A method of treating a sacroiliac joint at a sacroiliac joint region having a sacrum, an ilium and a sacroiliac joint space therebetween, the method comprising: a) delivering a joint implant into the sacroiliac joint region, the joint implant comprising a body including a length extending between a proximal end and a distal end, an external surface extending the length, and a fixation member receiving channel extending the length and disposed in the external surface; and b) delivering a fixation member into the fixation member receiving channel thereby forming a joint implant assembly, the fixation member slidingly and matingly engaging the fixation member receiving channel in a grooved arrangement, wherein, when the fixation member is received into the fixation member receiving channel, the fixation member extends outward from the external surface of the joint implant and extends a portion of the length.

A method of surgically treating a patient suffering from severe pain and disability of the low back and buttock by stabilizing the patient's spinal column to their pelvis with an implant system including surgical tools and an implant designed to prevent movement between the sacrum and the ilium while being able to attach to a spinal fusion rod which connect to pedicle screws implanted in the bones of the spine of the patient in order to offer lasting relief of the patient's symptoms. The system is designed to address complications in adult spinal deformity by optimizing spinopelvic fixation vis-?-vis the unique biomechanics of the SI joint. The sacropelvic system is a surgical solution which provides an additively manufactured implant at the base of the spine employing an S2AI trajectory while utilizing assisting technologies including surgical navigation and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring.

An implant for interbody fusion of vertebrae comprising a unibody cage structure having an enveloping cage volume and a minimized material volume. The cage structure comprises a first and a second generally planar ring member, each ring member formed from an opposing pair of lengthwise joists and an opposing pair of cross joists, the joists together forming a large opening through the ring member. The ring members are fixedly sandwiched on a plurality of support members, the support members holding the ring members in a spaced apart relationship to thereby provide a large void volume relative to the enveloping cage volume, to thereby allow for receipt of a large volume of bone graft within the cage structure.

A sacroiliac joint fusion system that provides a method of fixation and fusion of the sacroiliac joint and sacroiliac fixation fusion implant which upon placement facilitates stability and fusion of the sacroiliac joint.

An intervertebral implant for insertion into an intervertebral disc space between adjacent vertebral bodies or between two bone portions. The implant includes a spacer portion, a plate portion operatively coupled to the spacer portion and one or more blades for securing the implant to the adjacent vertebral bodies. The blades preferably include superior and inferior cylindrical pins for engaging the adjacent vertebral bodies. The implant may be configured to be inserted via a direct lateral trans-psoas approach. Alternatively, the implant may be configured for insertion via an anterior approach.

An intervertebral implant for implantation in an intervertebral space between vertebrae. The implant includes a body extending from an upper surface to a lower surface. The body has a front end, a rear end and a pair of spaced apart first and second side walls extending between the front and rear walls such that an internal chamber is defined within the front and rear ends and the first and second walls. The body defines an outer perimeter and an inner perimeter extending about the internal chamber. At least one of the side walls is defined by an integral porous structure which extends from the outer perimeter to the inner perimeter. The at least one of the side walls is free of vertical solid support structure between the upper and lower surface.
