Abstract:
A system and method for attaching soft tissue to a prosthetic implant can include a prosthetic component that defines a soft tissue attachment region having an attachment surface thereon. A first construct can be formed of porous metal and be removably coupled to the attachment surface. A second construct can be positioned outboard of the soft tissue. A fastener can be engaged to the second construct capturing the soft tissue against the first construct. The fastener can be coupled on a distal end to the first prosthetic component.

Abstract:
A modular knee prosthesis can include a femoral component having a superiorly extending portion, a first femoral bearing surface and a second femoral bearing surface. The superiorly extending portion can define a first tapered augment receiving surface. A tibial component can have an inferiorly extending portion and a tibial bearing surface. The inferiorly extending portion can define a second tapered augment receiving surface. A first augment can define a first receiving bore and a first stepped surface. A second augment can define a second receiving bore and a second stepped surface. The first and second augments are adapted to mate at the first and second stepped surfaces in a first position at the first tapered augment receiving surface of the femoral component and in a second position at the second tapered augment receiving surface of the tibial component.
Abstract:
A prosthetic device for replacement of a first pelvic portion of a pelvis of a patient opposite to a second pelvic portion relative to a median plane includes an acetabular component a flange component and a pubis component. The acetabular component has a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion at an angle relative to the first connecting portion, the angle selected for a corresponding anatomy of the patient. The flange component is coupled to the first connecting portion and configured to attach to a healthy pelvic portion on a same side of the median plane from the first pelvic portion. The pubis component is connected to the second connecting portion of the acetabular component and having a clamping portion configured to attach to a healthy pubis bone on an opposite side of the median plane from the first pelvic portion.
Abstract:
An endoprosthetic device includes a monolithic meniscal implant having a three-dimensional patient-specific tibial engagement surface nesting in and complementary to a proximal surface of the proximal tibia of a patient and a femoral articulating surface opposite to the tibial engagement surface for articulating with a femoral condyle of the patient. The meniscal implant includes a first portion and a second remainder portion, wherein the first portion is compressible relative to the second remainder portion.
Abstract:
A prosthesis system for replacing a knee joint between a femur and a tibia can include a femoral component, a tibial component, a bearing, a first yoke, and a first key. The femoral component can include a first condylar portion, a second condylar portion, a first sidewall extending superiorly from the first condylar portion, a second sidewall extending superiorly from the second condylar portion where the first and second sidewalls collectively comprise a first hinge portion. The tibial component can have a bone engaging inferior surface and a bearing engaging superior surface. The bearing can have an inferior that engages the bearing engaging surface and a superior femoral engaging surface. The bearing can define an opening. The first yoke can have an inferior portion, a superior portion and a yoke keyway extending through the therethrough.
Abstract:
A patellar implant includes a posterior portion and an anterior portion. The posterior portion can have a first radial sidewall that extends between an outboard face and an inboard face. The outboard face can include an articulating surface. The inboard face can include one of a stem and a recess, and one of an annular central hub and an annular radial pocket. The anterior portion can have a second radial sidewall that extends between a tissue engaging surface and a posterior portion engaging surface.
Abstract:
Example implants, systems and methods using sensors for orthopedic surgical assessment and/or planning are described herein. An example system can include a wearable sensor device for pre-operative use by a patient before an orthopedic surgery to generate pre-operative sensor data. The system can also include an implantable sensor device (e.g., a bone implant) to generate and aggregate post-operative sensor data associated with the patient after the surgery. The system can retrieve the pre-operative sensor data and the post-operative sensor data and predict, analyze or assess an outcome of the surgery.
Abstract:
A knee joint prosthesis can include a tibial component that can have a tibial tray. The tibial tray can include a platform-like tray that defines a superior surface and an inferior surface. The platform-like tray can have a tray perimeter and a raised wall formed on the inferior surface. The raised wall can be offset inboard relative to the tray perimeter. Porous material can be disposed on the inferior surface of the platform-like tray at a location generally between the raised wall and the tray perimeter.
Abstract:
A method for preparing at least a first bone for receiving a prosthesis can include positioning an IM member in a bone. A scaffold, skeleton or frame can be located onto the bone at a desired location. An alignment assembly can be coupled to the frame. The alignment assembly can be moved relative to the IM member to position the frame at a desired location relative to the bone. The frame can be fixed to the bone at the desired location. A cavity can be reamed into the bone using at least a portion of the alignment assembly as a guide. The alignment assembly can be removed from the frame. A cutting block can be coupled to the first attachment portion. Cuts can be prepared in the bone using the cutting block as a guide.
