Instruments and techniques for orienting prosthesis components for joint prostheses
The present invention is directed to a modular assembly for an arthroplasty in a long bone and methods for achieving an anatomically accurate reconstruction. A modular arthroplasty assembly includes the components of: a convertible offset coupler bounded on a first side by an implant surface adapted to receive an implant component, and bounded on an opposite second side by a bone anchor engagement surface, prosthesis component and a bone anchor configured to be inserted in bone and adapted for engagement with the convertible offset coupler. Together, the components of the system, including the array of selectable engagement orientations of the components, enables adaptation to the existing anatomy of the patient and the ability to most closely achieve the native anatomy of the healthy shoulder joint so as to provide the patient with the most natural use of the joint. The system also provides a solution for reverse arthroplasty and conversion from anatomically correct to reverse that avoids a boney procedure on revision and minimizes humeral distalization.
CONVERTIBLE ANATOMIC TO REVERSE TOTAL SHOULDER ARTHROPLASTY DEVICE
A convertible anatomic to reverse total shoulder arthroplasty device for utilizing a modular glenoid component in an anatomic shoulder arthroplasty facilitating later conversion to a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty when needed includes a baseplate for engaging and securing to a scapula. The baseplate includes a receiver extending into the baseplate. A glenoid component has a cavity section and a shaft section. The shaft section of the glenoid component is insertable into the receiver for replacing a glenoid fossa of the scapula. A humeral ball is couplable to a stem for being secured to a humerus wherein the humeral ball abuts and is engaged to the glenoid section of the glenoid component.
Method of implanting joint prosthesis with infinitely positionable head
A method for preparing an articulating component of a joint prosthesis having an implant engaged within a bone of the joint, the method including inserting a first articulating component into a first insert in the implant within the bone of the joint, determining an angular orientation of the inserted first articulating component relative to the implant within the bone of the joint, positioning a second articulating component within a second insert component, replicating the angular orientation of the first articulating component in the second articulating component positioned within the second insert, fixing the second articulating component to the second insert component at the replicated angular orientation, and mounting the second insert component with the fixed second articulating component to the implant engaged within the bone of the joint.
GLENOID IMPLANT
An apparatus can include a base plate. A glenosphere can be configured to be mountable to the base plate. The glenosphere can be adapted to operate with a complementary humeral component. The base plate can include a removable taper member on a side of the base plate facing the glenosphere. The taper member can be configured to mount the glenosphere to the base plate.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REPAIRING ARTICULAR SURFACES
A joint replacement system for repairing an articular surface of a first bone of a joint includes an anchor portion and an implant portion. The anchor portion includes an anchor to be secured to the bone, and an anchor fixation head including a bone-facing surface (BFS) extending radially outward from the anchor and an implant facing surface (IFS) extending from a periphery of the BFS. The implant portion is formed from a material (e.g., CoCr) more dense than the material of the anchor portion (e.g., Ti) and includes a fixation cavity to receive at least a portion of the anchor fixation head (AFH), the fixation cavity includes an anchor facing surface (AFS) configured to form a frictional connection with the IFS, and a load bearing surface having a contour for articulating against a cooperating articulating surface of a second bone of the joint.
Glenoid implant
An apparatus can include a base plate. A glenosphere can be configured to be mountable to the base plate. The glenosphere can be adapted to operate with a complementary humeral component. The base plate can include a removable taper member on a side of the base plate facing the glenosphere. The taper member can be configured to mount the glenosphere to the base plate.
Metatarsal arthroplasty devices, systems, and methods
Implants, systems, instruments, methods, and kits for metatarsophalangeal joint arthroplasty may include metatarsal arthroplasty implants, repositioning guides, broach tools, inserter tools, and sterilizable packaging configured to facilitate metatarsal arthroplasty surgical procedures. The metatarsal arthroplasty implants may generally include an articular member having a convex articular surface, a concave bone-facing surface opposite the convex articular surface, and at least one side surface intermediate the convex articular surface and the concave bone-facing surface, as well as a central shaft sized for insertion into a metatarsal bone having a central shaft longitudinal axis, a central shaft proximal end coupled to the concave bone-facing surface of the articular member, and a central shaft distal end extending away from the concave bone-facing surface of the articular member along the central shaft longitudinal axis.
Computer-implemented surgical planning based on bone loss during orthopedic revision surgery
A surgical assistance system may obtain a pre-revision model of a bone of a patient. The pre-revision model of the bone represents a pre-revision state of the bone after a prior orthopedic surgery on the bone. In this example, an orthopedic prosthesis was attached to the bone during the prior orthopedic surgery. Additionally, the surgical assistance system may obtain intra-revision imaging data of the bone. The intra-revision imaging data represents an intra-revision state of the bone during the orthopedic revision surgery after removal of the orthopedic prosthesis from the bone. The surgical assistance system may determine, based on the intra revision imaging data, damaged and intact parts of the bone. The surgical assistance system may then generate a second intra-revision model of the bone by modifying the pre-revision model of the bone to exclude damaged parts of the bone.
