A knee joint prosthesis is capable of moving between an extended position and a flexion position. The knee joint prosthesis includes a femoral component that is configured to be mounted to a femur, a tibial component that is configured to be mounted to a tibia, a post fixedly connected to one of the femoral component and the tibial component, and a cam recess defined on the other of the femoral component and the tibial component that is configured to be engaged by the post in either the extended position or the flexion position of the knee joint prosthesis. The knee joint prosthesis may also include an artificial ligament that extends between the femoral component and the tibial component. The post and the ligament mimic one of the ACL and PCL.

An assembly for attachment to a first implant component has a size and shape of a second implant component to be implanted together with the first implant component. The assembly includes a first body including a plug having a projection, and a second body including a recess having an internal surface defining at least one indentation. In a temporary configuration, when the plug is disposed within the recess and the projection is disposed at least partially within one of the at least one indentations, the first and second bodies are removably connected such that the first and second bodies are prevented from separating. A method of assembling the assembly includes removably connecting the plug of the first body into the recess of the second body by locating the projection within an indentation, such that the bodies are prevented from separating, and positioning the assembly on the first implant component.

An orthopaedic prosthesis includes a femoral component configured to be attached to a distal end of a patient's femur. A tibial tray is configured to be attached to a proximal end of a patient's tibia. A tibial insert is configured to rotate relative to the tibial tray. A modular insert is received in a cavity defined in the tibial insert. The femoral component is rotatably coupled to the body of the modular insert.

A glenoid implant including a base plate and an articular component. The base plate can include a body and a support structure extending from a distal surface of the body. The body can include a plurality of openings. The articular component can be configured to removably couple to the base plate. The articular component can include a recessed portion configured to at least partially receive the body of the base plate. At least one engagement structure can protrude from a distal facing surface of the recessed portion. Each engagement structure can correspond to one of the plurality of openings in the body. A distal face of the articular component surrounding the recessed portion can be configured to abut the subchondral bone.

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.

An intervertebral prosthetic implant having a first endplate having a first surface configured to substantially engage with a first vertebral body and a second surface having an extension with a concave contact surface, the concave contact surface being spaced apart from the second surface. A second endplate is provided with a first surface configured to substantially engage with a second vertebral body and a second surface comprising a convex contact surface, and the second endplate having a securing element positioned along and above the second surface defining a first and second window on opposing sides of the second surface. The securing element extends along the width and length of the lower endplate and configured with an access hole. An extension portion extends from the first surface of the first endplate through the access hole of the securing element and contacts the second surface of the second endplate.

Pedicle-based intradiscal fixation devices, systems, instruments, and methods thereof. An implant for stabilizing an inferior vertebra and a superior vertebra may include a first member and a second member moveably connected to the first member. The implant may have a first, initial insertion orientation and a second, final implantation orientation different from the first, initial insertion orientation. The first member may be configured to be inserted through a pedicle of the inferior vertebra and the second member may be configured to engage bone of the superior vertebra in the second, final implantation orientation.

Provided is an elbow joint prosthetic implant (100) comprising: a humeral component (50) comprising a humeral stem portion (60) configured for placement within the humeral intramedullary canal of a subject, an ulnar component (110) comprising an ulnar stem portion (120) configured for placement within the ulnar intramedullary canal of the subject, wherein the humeral component (50) and ulnar component (110) are connected by an implant elbow joint (130), wherein the ulnar component (110) further comprises an angulation joint (140) that is separate from the implant elbow joint (130), wherein the angulation joint (140) and has at least one degree of freedom of rotational movement configured to adjust and fix a varus-valgus direction of the ulnar stem portion (120).

A knee joint prosthesis is configured to move between an extended position and a flexion position. The knee joint prosthesis includes a femoral component configured to be mounted to a femur, and a tibial component configured to be mounted to a tibia. The tibial component is configured to engage the femoral component to form the knee joint prosthesis. A post is fixedly connected to one of the femoral component and the tibial component, and a cam recess is defined on the other of the femoral component and the tibial component. The cam recess is configured to engage the post in either the extended position or the flexion position of the knee joint prosthesis. An artificial ligament is fixedly connected to the femoral component and the tibial component to simulate either an anterior cruciate ligament or a posterior cruciate ligament.
