A system for performing interbody fusion surgery including an expandable intervertebral spacer and specialized instruments for choosing the correct size of implant, implanting the device within the intervertebral space, and for delivery of bone graft or bone substitute to the interior of the implant.

An interbody cage, which has lattice-like or grid-like areas for better connection/fusion into the area of the vertebra. The cage has especially an outer frame, which includes massive support parts and, and an inner grid body. The frame determining the outer contour and the lattice or grid areas located within same are made in one piece. The cage is prepared by sintering, such as by electron beam melting or laser sintering.

A bufferable femoral implant includes a metallic main body, and an elastomer member integrally formed or connected to a lower portion of the metallic main body, whereby when an external force acts upon the femoral implant as implanted in a patient's femur, the elastomer member as packed within the medullary cavity in the femur will bufferably dampen such an external force for safely protecting the patient's femur, the femoral implant and the related hip bones.

An expandable spinal implant configured for positioning within the intervertebral space between adjacent vertebral bodies is disclosed. The spinal implant includes a first body, a second body, a ratchet, and a locking mechanism. The first and second bodies are pivotably affixed to each other on respective first ends thereof and are capable of movement relative to each other in a medial-lateral direction with respect to the adjacent vertebral bodies. The ratchet is pivotably supported within a slot defined in the first body and is capable of engaging the second body thereby permitting movement of the first and second body relative to each other in a first direction, but not in a second direction that is different than the first direction. A method of performing spinal surgery is also disclosed.

The present disclosure provides an implant system. The implant system includes an anchor configured to be secured to bone within an excision site formed in a patient's glenoid, said anchor including a shank and an enlarged head. The implant system also includes a baseplate including a body comprising: a bone facing surface; an implant facing surface; and a channel configured to extend radially from an entrance in an outer periphery of said body to a central region of said baseplate, said channel configured to receive said enlarged head and a portion of said shank and including an open region formed, at least in part, in said bone facing surface. The implant system also includes an implant including a body defining a load bearing surface and a baseplate recess, said baseplate recess configured to receive at least a portion of said implant facing surface to said baseplate such that said implant is coupled to said baseplate.
