11752000 · 2023-09-12 · ·

A glenoid implant system may include a main body formed of a polymer, a base, and an anchor formed of metal. The main body may define an articulating surface and an opposite bone-contacting surface. The base may be formed in the bone-contacting surface of the main body, the base including a hole formed therein. The anchor may have a main section and a threaded post extending from the main section. The anchor may include a plurality of ribs extending in a longitudinal direction of the main section, the plurality of ribs being spaced apart from one another in a circumferential direction of the main section. The anchor may further include a plurality of wedges disposed on a base of the anchor, the plurality of wedges adapted to contact the base formed in the bone-contacting surface of the main body when the threaded post is received within the threaded hole.

EXPANSIBLE INTERVERTEBRAL IMPLANT

Various embodiments of an intervertebral implant comprise a body extending longitudinally along a primary axis, a baseplate, a plurality of elongated arms having a vertebral support surface, the arms being articulated such that the implant has a folded-back position in which the arms are close to each other, and a deployed position in which the arms are moved away from each other, and expansion means between the folded-back and deployed positions, comprising at least two branches pivotably mounted relative to each other and attached to the elongated arms by guide means such that translation of the expansion means parallel to the primary axis causes pivoting of the branches and moves the arms away from each other.
