SPINAL IMPLANT SYSTEM AND METHOD

A method of treating a spine includes implanting a spinal implant within a patient. The spinal implant includes a first member having a first wall defining an axial passageway and a first opening, the first opening being in communication with the axial passageway. A second member includes a second wall defining an axial channel having the first member disposed therein, the second wall defining a second opening in communication with the axial channel. Bone graft is injected through the first opening and into the axial passageway and through the second opening and into the axial channel after the spinal implant is implanted within the patient.

Expandable intervertebral implant

An expandable intervertebral implant is provided for insertion into an intervertebral space defined by adjacent vertebrae. The expandable intervertebral implant includes a pair of outer sleeve portions and an inner core disposed between the outer sleeve portions. Movement of the inner core relative to the outer sleeve portions causes the outers sleeve portions to deflect away from each other, thereby engaging the expandable intervertebral implant with the vertebrae and adjusting the height of the intervertebral space.

A system of prosthetic implants for a total knee replacement procedure is provided. The system includes a tibial component of a knee joint implant, a tibial insert configured to be positioned against the superior side of the platform of the tibial component, a first femoral component of a knee joint implant, and a second femoral component of a knee joint implant.

Multi-Size Acetabular Impactor
20230057126 · 2023-02-23 ·

An acetabular implant kit includes a first acetabular component that has an inner surface that defines a first concave profile. A second acetabular component includes an inner surface that defines a second concave profile. An instrument includes an elongated body that has a first end and a second end. A head is connected to the second end of the body and has an engagement surface. The engagement surface includes a first convex profile and a second convex profile. The first and second convex profiles are arranged along a longitudinal axis of the head and have a first radius of curvature configured to congruently engage the first concave profile of the first acetabular component. The second convex profile has a second radius of curvature configure to congruently engage the second concave profile of the second acetabular component. The first radius of curvature is different than the second radius of curvature.
