55 results about "Glenoid component" patented technology

Glenoid Component. Historically, the glenoid component has been the “weak link” of shoulder replacement. In addition to being the most difficult part of the surgical procedure, the glenoid component is the most likely site of component failure, which has led many surgeons to avoid glenoid resurfacing in nearly all cases.

Glenoid alignment tool

An orthopaedic alignment guide component is provided for preparing a patient's bone socket, such as the glenoid of the patient's scapula, to receive a prosthetic glenoid component. The orthopaedic alignment guide component includes a guide body for inserting a guide pin into the patient's scapula and an inferior referencing arm for referencing an inferior surface of the patient's scapula.

Dual-radius glenoid prosthetic component for total shoulder arthroplasty

A dual-radius glenoid component of a shoulder joint prosthesis for use in total shoulder arthroplasty has two radii of curvature. At substantially the center of the articulating surface a first non-conforming radius of curvature is provided, while a second conforming radius of curvature, smaller than that of the first radius of curvature and more closely conforming to the curvature of the humeral component, is disposed about the periphery of the articulating surface. The central non-conforming radius of curvature provides reduced constraint of the humeral component. In contrast, the conforming peripheral radius of curvature provides maximum constraint of the humeral component. When the humeral component is substantially centered on the articulating surface reduced constraint is placed on the prosthesis and less load is transferred to the bone-implant interface. As the humeral component translates towards the periphery, constraint on the prosthesis increases to prevent dislocation.

Reverse shoulder prosthesis

ActiveUS20070244563A1Bone implantJoint implantsMechanical engineeringReverse shoulder prosthesis
Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an apparatus and method for reverse shoulder arthroplasty (e.g., reverse total shoulder arthroplasty). In one specific example, a glenoid component used to resurface the scapula may be provided. Of note, unlike traditional total shoulder arthroplasty the glenoid component in a reverse shoulder is convex rather than concave; it acts as a physical stop to prevent the superior migration of the humeral head—a typical occurrence in patients suffering from rotator cuff tear arthropathy (CTA).

Glenoid component with improved fixation stability

A glenoid component is provided to reduce glenoid loosening when implanted in orthopedic joint replacement / reconstruction, such for a shoulder. The glenoid component can include pegs or a keel and articulating surface geometry that uses complex, non-spherical geometry to recreate a level of constraint that is adequate, but not excessive, to thereby mitigate loosening of the glenoid component after implantation. In addition, some embodiments provide that peak stresses both within cement and at an interface of the cement and a supportive component can be reduced. Further, geometry of the pegs can allow stresses to be evenly applied to a cement mantle formed in the supportive component. Finally, the pegs can be configured to desired lengths in order to avoid placement in areas of the supportive component, for example, that have insufficient bone stock.

Glenoid component with an anatomically optimized keel

A glenoid component for a shoulder prosthesis adapted to be mounted in a glenoid cavity of a shoulder. An elongated keel adapted to engage with the glenoid cavity is attached to the internal surface of the base. The keel extends along a longitudinal axis of the base. The keel includes various configurations of transverse members extending away from the longitudinal axis. The surgeon selects a glenoid component with a keel and transverse member configuration that is anatomically optimized for the patient. Glenoid components properly optimized provide mechanical strength and stability superior to prior art devices. The glenoid components disclosed herein are particularly well suited for use in an anatomical total shoulder prosthesis, but may are also suited to partial shoulder prostheses and reverse shoulder prostheses.

Total shoulder prosthesis or inverted type

This total shoulder prosthesis comprises a glenoidal component, defining a substantially hemispherical convex articular surface and of which the centre of curvature is located in the glenoid cavity or in the immediate vicinity thereof, and a humeral component defining a concave articular surface adapted to cooperate with the convex articular surface of the glenoidal component. The concave humeral articular surface is defined by a metallic part of the humeral component, this avoiding having to resort to a part made of plastics material which would increase the space requirement of the prosthesis.
