Abstract

The present invention discloses a modular reverse shoulder orthopaedic implant and a method of implanting the same. A modular reverse shoulder orthopaedic implant includes a humeral stem component and a separable fracture epiphysis component having a number of suture holes formed therein. The fracture epiphysis component is configured to receive a number of sutures for surgically repairing a proximal humeral fracture.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to orthopedic implants, and more particularly to inverted shoulder orthopedic implants. Background technique [0002] During the patient's lifetime, total shoulder replacement surgery may be required on the patient due to, for example, disease or trauma. In total shoulder replacement surgery, a humeral prosthesis is used to replace the natural head of the patient's humerus. A humeral prosthesis typically includes an elongated stem member implanted in the intramedullary canal of the patient's humerus and a hemispherical prosthetic head member secured to the stem member. In such total shoulder replacement surgery, the natural glenoid surface of the scapula is reconstructed or or otherwise replaced with a glenoid component that provides a bearing surface on which the prosthetic head component of the humerus prosthesis can rest. Joint movement is performed on the surface. [0003] However, in some cases, the pati...
