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.

A stemless humeral head replacement system including a base plate and a humeral head implant. The base plate includes a bone facing side, an implant side opposite the bone facing side, a curvate perimeter, at least one fin protruding from the bone facing side a first distance and extending linearly a length along the bone facing side, and an implant engagement structure on the implant side. The humeral head implant includes a curvate implant surface and a base plate engagement structure opposite the curvate implant surface, the base plate engagement structure configured to couple to the implant engagement structure of the base plate.

A system and method for allowing any surgeon, including those surgeons who perform a fewer number of a replacement procedure as compared to a more experienced surgeon who performs a greater number of procedures, to provide an improved likelihood of a favorable outcome approaching, if not exceeding, a likelihood of a favorable outcome as performed by a very experienced surgeon with the replacement procedure.

A tunable implant, system, and method enables a tunable implant to be adjusted within a patient. The tunable implant includes a securing mechanism to secure the implant in the patient, a actuation portion that enables the implant to move and an adjustment portion that permits adjustment of the implant after the implant has been positioned within the patient. The method of adjusting the tunable implant includes analyzing the operation of the implant, determining if any adjustments are necessary and adjusting the implant to improve implant performance. The implant system includes both the tunable implant and a telemetric system that is operable to telemetrically receive data from the tunable implant where the data is used to determine if adjustment of the tunable implant is necessary. The system also includes an instrument assembly that is used for performing spinal surgery where the instrument assembly includes a mounting platform and a jig.

An impactor according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises an adapter detachably coupled to a rotary power tool, wherein the adapter includes: a case part; a tool coupling part receiving a rotational force from the rotary power tool; a first rotating part rotating in association with rotation of the tool coupling part in only one direction among rotation directions of the tool coupling part; a striking part transfer part rotating in association with rotation of the first rotating part; a striking part which is moved, while compressing a first spring, in a first direction by rotation of the striking part transfer part and then moved in a second direction opposite to the first direction by a restoring force of the first spring; and a force transfer part moved in the second direction by contact with the striking part.

A cage holder includes an elongated body having a proximal end and a distal end, the elongated body extending from the proximal end to the distal end. The cage holder further includes means for transferring energy centrally from the proximal end to the distal end through the elongated body.

Systems and methods may display an indication of an impact force from a driving device. A method may include displaying the indication of the impact force with a light. The light may be located on the driving device, a component attached to the driving device, a user interface, or the like. Different colors may be used to indicate different impact forces. For example, a first light color may correspond to an impact force below a first threshold, a second light color may correspond to an impact force above a second threshold, and a third light color may correspond to an impact force between the thresholds. The impact force may be detected using a sensor, which may output a voltage to cause the illumination.

Hip joint navigation systems and methods are provided. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein determine a table reference plane that approximates the Anterior Pelvic Plane. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein measure a pre-operative and post-operative point. In some embodiments, the comparison of the pre-operative and post-operative point corresponds to changes in leg length and joint offset. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein determine an Adjusted Plane. In some embodiments, the Adjusted Plane adjusts for tilt by rotating the Anterior Pelvic Plane about the inter-ASIS line. In some embodiments, the Adjusted Plane improves correlation between navigated cup angles and post-operative images.

An implant extractor for use in orthopedic surgeries. The implant extractor provides a line of force substantially parallel to an implant to be extracted. The implant extractor includes a curved body having a curved jaw track configured to slidingly receive a correspondingly curved jaw for clamping a trunnion of an implant, e.g., a hip stem implant. A push rod urges the curved jaw into clamping engagement with the trunnion under the influence of a cam handle having a continuously curved cam surface.

A system for treating dysfunctional SI joints that includes a multi-function bone structure prosthesis adapted to be delivered to and inserted into a dysfunctional SI joint via a posterior approach, the multi-function bone structure prosthesis, when disposed in a dysfunctional SI joint, being adapted to (i) stabilize the dysfunctional SI joint, (ii) induce proliferation, and/or growth and/or remodeling and/or regeneration of osseous tissue and, thereby, healing and arthrodesis of the dysfunctional SI joint, (iii) attenuate pain associated with the dysfunctional SI joint via neurostimulation, and (iv) monitor physiological and/or biomechanical parameters associated with the dysfunctional SI joint via one or more sensor systems.
