ACETABULAR LINER
An acetabular liner having a closed first end, an open second end, and a liner wall having a distal peripheral edge. The acetabular liner wall can include an interior surface, an exterior surface configured to be received within an acetabular shell, a first cutout through the liner wall, a second cutout parallel to the first cutout and through the liner wall, and a third cutout in the interior surface partially through the liner wall, the third cutout extending between the first and second cutouts, and at least one movable tab extending from the peripheral edge inwardly towards an axial center of the liner and having sidewalls defined by one of the sets of cutouts, the tab comprising at least one projection on an exterior surface of the tab configured to removably secure to a portion of an acetabular shell.
Convertible glenoid implant
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.
Artificial spinal disk prothesis
Intervertebral endoprosthesis discs suitable for surgical implantation between two vertebrae having and methods thereof. The prosthetic disc may have an endoprosthesis body including an anterior region and a posterior region designed to be positioned between a first vertebra and a second vertebra with a first and second movable insert positioned rotatably in anterior cavities and is rotatable to adjust the fasteners.
EXPANDABLE FUSION DEVICES AND METHODS OF INSTALLATION THEREOF
Exemplary embodiments of apparatuses and methods of an expandable fusion device are provided. In one embodiment, an intervertebral implant can be provided, having a first endplate having an upper surface and a lower surface, a second endplate having an upper surface and a lower surface. A first side wall extends from the first endplate and a second side wall extends from the second endplate and are configured to engage one another to provide a selective variable height between the first endplate and the second endplate. The first side wall and the second side wall form a substantially hollow portion substantially enclosed by the first endplate, second endplate and the side walls. The substantially hollow portion is configured to receive bone growth inducing material.
STANDALONE INTERBODY IMPLANTS
Stand-alone interbody fusion devices for engagement between adjacent vertebrae. The stand-alone interbody fusion devices may include frames and one or more endplates coupled to the frame. The frame may be configured and designed to provide the apertures which are designed to retain bone fasteners, such as screws or anchors, and secure the implant to the adjacent vertebrae.
Reversible bone coupling device and method
A reversible bone coupling device including a first component having a first elongated stem portion for insertion from a first end longitudinally into a surface of a first bone piece, and a second component having a second elongated stem portion for insertion from a second end longitudinally into a surface of a second bone piece, and a connector extending from a second top for coupling with the first component and reversibly locking therein.
Artificial spinal disk prosthesis
Intervertebral endoprosthesis discs suitable for surgical implantation between two vertebrae having and methods thereof. The prosthetic disc may have an endoprosthesis body including an anterior region and a posterior region designed to be positioned between a first vertebra and a second vertebra with a first and second movable insert positioned rotatably in anterior cavities and is rotatable to adjust the fasteners.

The frame may be configured and designed to provide the apertures which are designed to retain bone fasteners, such as screws or anchors, and secure the implant to the adjacent vertebrae.
LATERALLY INSERTABLE INTERVERTEBRAL SPINAL IMPLANT
An intervertebral implant for implantation in an intervertebral space between vertebrae. The implant includes a body having a front end, a rear end and a pair of spaced apart first and second side walls extending between the front and rear ends. The front and rear ends extend in a transverse direction and a central axis of the body extends from the rear end to the front end. The rear end defines a first fastener hole having a first central axis and a second fastener hole having a second central axis. The first and second central axes extend parallel to one another at an acute angle relative to the body central axis in the transverse direction.
