Abstract:
In some embodiments, the present invention provides a reverse shoulder glenoid prosthesis which supports the attachment of multiple different types of modular attachments that can: 1) provide additional scapular fixation (ie external to the glenoid) in order to improve glenoid implant fixation in cases of severe bone loss/fracture, 2) provide joint line lateralization to improve tissue stability in cases of severe glenoid/scapula bone loss, 3) facilitate use and containment of glenoid bone graft in cases of severe glenoid/scapula bone loss—particularly in those cases in which the glenoid defect is uncontained/peripheral 4) achieve glenoid fixation while at the same time reconstructing the scapular bone in cases of scapula fractures, glenoid fractures, and/or acromial fractures, and 5) provide improved rTSA joint biomechanics, particularly posterior rotator cuff efficiency by changing the line of action of the infraspinatus and teres minor muscles to improve their muscle tension, and also increase each muscle's external rotation and abduction moment arm lengths.
Abstract:
A device includes an acromion portion sized and shaped to replicate functions of the native acromion, and a fixation portion connected to the acromion portion, the fixation portion including a first arm portion and a second arm portion spaced apart from the first arm portion, wherein the first arm and second arm portions are positioned such that, when the device is positioned such that the acromion portion is in a native position of the absent native acromion, the first arm portion overlays a superior face of a scapular spine of the scapula and the second arm portion overlays an inferior space of the scapular spine of the scapula, wherein each of the first arm portion and the second arm portion includes at least one screw fixation point extending therethrough and configured to receive a screw therein so as to secure the device to the scapula.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a processor and a non-transitory memory. The processor is configured to receive pre-operative patient specific data. The pre-operative patient specific data is inputted to a first machine learning model to determine a first predicted post-operative joint performance data output including first predicted post-operative outcome metrics. A reconstruction plan of the joint of the patient is generated based on a medical image of the joint, and at least one arthroplasty surgical parameter obtained from the user. The at least one arthroplasty surgical parameter is inputted into a second machine learning model to determine a second predicted post-operative joint performance data output including second predicted post-operative outcome metrics. The second predicted post-operative joint performance data output is updated to include an arthroplasty surgery recommendation, in response to the user varying the at least one arthroplasty surgical parameter, before the arthroplasty surgery, during the arthroplasty surgery, or both.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a kit that includes a humeral stem having a central longitudinal axis, the humeral stem configured to attach to a resected bone; a first tuberosity component having a first thickness relative to the central longitudinal axis of the humeral stem; a second tuberosity component having a second thickness relative to the central longitudinal axis of the humeral stem, wherein the first thickness of the first tuberosity component is different than the second thickness of the second tuberosity component; and at least one proximal segment configured to engage at least one of the first tuberosity component and the second tuberosity component. In an embodiment, the first thickness of the first tuberosity component is at least 20 mm relative to the central axis of the humeral stem, and the second thickness of the second tuberosity component is at least 20 mm relative to the central axis of the humeral stem.

Abstract:
A talar implant, comprising: a superior surface, defined by an arc having at least one first radius; an inferior surface, defined by an arc having at least one second radius, a lateral side; a medial side; a posterior portion having a first width; and an anterior portion having a second width; wherein the implant is configured to restore a tibio-talar joint tension, wherein the superior surface is separated from the inferior surface by a thickness, wherein the at least one first radius is smaller than the at least one second radius, wherein the center of the arc having at least one first radius is offset from the center of the arc having at least one second radius in at least one plane of the talar implant, and wherein the anterior portion further comprises an extension configured to provide support.
Abstract:
A prosthesis system (100) of the present invention includes a monoblock stem extension (10) comprising a proximal portion (20) having a first neutral axis (20a); and a distal portion (30) defined by a longitudinal cylindrical shaft (31) having a second neutral axis (30a), wherein the second neutral axis (30a) is parallel and offset by a distance a from the first neutral axis (20a): and an eccentric bushing (50) arranged coaxial around the cylindrical shaft (31) of the monoblock stem extension (10), the eccentric bushing (50) comprising an external cylindrical shaft (51) having a third neutral axis (51a); and an internal cylinder (53) having a fourth neutral axis (50a) that is substantially co-linear with the second neutral axis (30a) of the monoblock stem extension (10), wherein the third neutral axis (5 1 a) is parallel and offset by a distance β from the fourth neutral axis (50a).
Abstract:
Provided is an intervertebral implant to be implanted within an intervertebral space between endplates of adjacent vertebra during use. The implant includes an upper member having an inferior surface including an upper guide track and a superior surface to contact an endplate of an upper one of the adjacent vertebra during use, a lower member having a superior surface including a lower guide track and an inferior surface to contact an endplate of a lower one of the adjacent vertebra during use, and an insert having a superior surface including an upper guide rail to engage the upper guide track during use and an inferior surface including a lower guide rail to engage the lower guide track during use. Engagement of the upper and lower guide rails with the upper and lower guide tracks, respectively, guides insertion of the insert between the upper and lower members during use, and insertion of the insert between the upper and lower members facilitates expansion of the intervertebral implant.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, an intervertebral implant may include a body including a superior and an inferior surface. The implant may include a first channel extending from an anterior end towards the posterior end of the body. The implant may include a first anchor channel The implant may include a first guide member positionable in the first channel The implant may include a first anchor. When the first guide member moves from a first position to a second position the first anchor may be conveyed through the first anchor channel and couple the body to an adjacent vertebra.
