Disclosed herein are a system and method for attaching an implant, such as an acetabular cup, to an adapter connector without requiring rotation of the connector or the implant, to allow for easy connection, manipulation, and insertion of the implant into a patient. An adapter connector or adapter inserter can include a collet and a collet spreader. The collet can include an exterior surface and an interior surface. The exterior surface can define a protuberance sized to engage an indentation in an adapter. The interior surface can define a collet cavity. The collet spreader can be located at least partially within the collet cavity. The collet spreader can include a flared surface and an engagement surface. The flared surface can be located at a first end of the collet spreader and arranged to engage the interior surface of the collet so as to cause the collet to expand.

Disclosed is a surgical targeting device for assisting placement of an elongated guidance member in a bone. The targeting device comprises a bottom portion having a dome-shaped convex outer surface and comprising a guidance through-hole extending along a guidance through-hole central axis for receiving the guidance member. A top portion of the targeting device is configured to be gripped by a tool. Further, a surgical system is disclosed which comprises the surgical targeting device.

A revision-implant receiver (18) is provided for supporting an implant (20) of a revision joint replacement (10). The revision-implant receiver (18) comprises a first receiver element (22) and a second receiver element (24). The first receiver element (22) and the second receiver element (24) are engaged with each other via a hinge element (26).

Provided is a kit for treating tissue of a subject. The kit includes a tool for creating a wedge opening within a bone tissue, and an implant. In some examples, the kit also includes an introducer configured to deliver the implant into the wedge opening.

The invention relates to a fastening device for an implant that is elastically deformable by stress, the length of the device in the unstressed state being less than that of the device in the stressed state, and the diameter of the device in the unstressed state being greater than that of the device in the stressed state, and to a kit comprising it.

An implant assembly for a long bone having a longitudinal axis. The implant assembly has a stem that is received in a surgically prepared medullary canal of the long bone. The stem defines at least one transverse through-opening that extends through the stem from a first portion of the outer surface of the stem to an opposed second portion of the outer surface of the stem. Each transverse through-opening has a central axis that is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the stem. Each transverse through-opening receives a fastener and has a longitudinal dimension, measured relative to the longitudinal axis of the stem, that is sufficient to permit axial movement, relative to the longitudinal axis of the stem, of the stem relative to each fastener.

Disclosed herein is a toe implant for replacing a portion of a human toe joint, as well as a related kit, surgical method, and method of manufacturing. Specifically, the toe implant may include a bearing member having a curved interface surface and a fixation member coupled to the bearing member. The fixation member may include a first portion having a non-porous barrier, and a tapered second portion.

A tibial tray system for a resurfaced proximal portion of a tibia for a knee replacement for a patient includes a tibial tray and at least one screw. The tibial tray includes a body having a superior portion, and an inferior tibia-engaging portion having a peripheral inferiorly-extending portion receivable in the at least one cavity formed in the periphery of the resected cancellous bone surface of the tibia of the patient. In some embodiments in the total knee replacement, a greater portion of a shearing force acting transversely on the tibial tray and the resected portion of the proximal portion of the tibia of the patient is resisted by the at least one inferiorly-extending wall compared to a portion of the shearing force being resisted along the center inferior surface of the tibial tray and the resected cancellous bone surface. The screw inhibits lift-off.

A composition and methods of making or use thereof include a plurality of fibers forming a shape for augmenting fixation of a bone screw, or the plurality of fibers form a shape having a peg portion and a sheet portion to augment tendon to bone repair. The physical presence of the plurality of fibers provides initial fixation, while the use of an osteoinductive material provides long term enhancement of bone formation around the site of the bone screw or the tendon to bone repair.

A modular augment cone system and methods of implanting the modular augment cone system. The system includes a main body cone a first cutout in the cone wall, and including a proximal end, a distal end, and a cone wall extending between the proximal and distal ends. A portion of the cone wall proximal to the first cutout includes an attachment feature. A first augment cone is positionable in the first cutout, the first augment cone including an attachment feature configured to mate with the attachment feature of the cone wall to attach the first augment cone into the first cutout. The main body cone can include a second cutout in the cone wall. In such systems, the modular augment cone system can include a second augment cone configured to mate with an attachment feature of the cone wall to attach the second augment cone into the second cutout.
