20100137870 | ACETABULAR LINER INSERTER GUIDE - An acetabular liner insertion guide ( | 06-03-2010 |
20110288650 | ILIAC CANAL PROSTHESIS - An acetabular prosthetic device for implantation in an iliac canal and acetabulum of an ilium comprises a stem and an acetabular component. The stem may be configured to be implanted in the iliac canal. The acetabular component may be configured to be implanted in the acetabulum and fixed to the stem. The acetabular component may further comprise a connection portion to adjustably connect the acetabular component to the stem such that the acetabular component is configured to be oriented in a plurality of orientations before being fixed to the stem. | 11-24-2011 |
20120016487 | IMPLANT COMPONENTS AND METHODS - Systems, devices, and methods are provided for orthopedic implants. The implants may include a base member, such as an acetabular shell or an augment, that is configured to couple with an augment, flange cup, mounting member, or any other suitable orthopedic attachment. An augment provided for an acetabular implant may be adjustably positionable around the implant. An implant may have one or more slots that mate with connections on the augment and allow the augment to move within the slot. An augment may be translated, rotated, or moved in any other way to achieve a desired orientation prior to locking the augment in place relative to the implant. The augment may be locked by a screw or other locking mechanism that holds the augment in place. The locking mechanism may be releasable to allow for repositioning of the augment. | 01-19-2012 |
20120022662 | IMPLANT COMPONENTS AND METHODS - Systems, devices, and methods are provided for orthopedic implants. The implants may include a base member, such as an acetabular shell or an augment, that is configured to couple with an augment, flange cup, mounting member, or any other suitable orthopedic attachment. Any of the implantable components may be include one or more porous surfaces. The porous surface may be textured by protrusions that connect to and extend from the surface. The sizes and concentration of the protrusions may be varied for specific applications to accommodate different implants and patient anatomies. A porous implant may also include one or more internal or external solid portions that strengthen the implant. | 01-26-2012 |
20120022663 | IMPLANT COMPONENTS AND METHODS - Systems, devices, and methods are provided for orthopedic implants. The implants may include a base member, such as an acetabular shell or an augment, that is configured to couple with an augment, flange cup, mounting member, or any other suitable orthopedic attachment. An implant may include a base member that has at least two projections with a gap between the projections. The gap between the projections allows the implant to be implanted around another implanted component, such as around a bone screw of an acetabular shell. The implant may include a fixation element, such as a screw or a cement trough, on one or more projections to couple the implant to an implanted acetabular shell. The implant may also include timing marks to facilitate alignment with corresponding marks on another implanted component. | 01-26-2012 |
20120083895 | IMPLANT COMPONENTS AND METHODS - Systems, devices, and methods are provided for orthopedic implants. The implants may include a base member, such as an acetabular shell or an augment, that is configured to couple with an augment, flange cup, mounting member, or any other suitable orthopedic attachment. A mounting member may be used to attach to an implant and anchor the implant to a patient's bone or soft tissue. The mounting member may be integral with the implant or may be provided as a separate component. A mounting member may be adjustably positionable around the implant to provide flexibility and allow the mounting member to meet needs of a particular patient and implant. | 04-05-2012 |
20120089235 | IMPLANT COMPONENTS AND METHODS - Systems, devices, and methods are provided for orthopedic implants. The implants may include a base member, such as an acetabular shell or an augment, that is configured to couple with an augment, flange cup, mounting member, or any other suitable orthopedic attachment. Mounting members include, for example, flanges, blades, hooks, and plates. In some embodiments, the orthopedic attachments may be adjustably positionable about the base member or other attachments, thereby providing modularity for assembling and implanting the device, and various securing and/or locking mechanisms may be used between the components of the implant. | 04-12-2012 |
20120143344 | UNIVERSAL LINER - The present invention relates to universal liner assemblies for use during hip joint replacement surgeries. The universal liners allow the surgeon a greater degree of selection of liners and shells, without being tied to typical liner/shell connections based on material connection constraints. | 06-07-2012 |
20140180431 | IMPLANT COMPONENTS AND METHODS - Systems, devices, and methods are provided for orthopedic implants. The implants may include a base member, such as an acetabular shell or an augment, that is configured to couple with an augment, flange cup, mounting member, or any other suitable orthopedic attachment. Mounting members include, for example, flanges, blades, hooks, and plates. In some embodiments, the orthopedic attachments may be adjustably positionable about the base member or other attachments, thereby providing modularity for assembling and implanting the device, and various securing and/or locking mechanisms may be used between the components of the implant. | 06-26-2014 |
20140180432 | IMPLANT COMPONENTS AND METHODS - Systems, devices, and methods are provided for orthopedic implants. The implants may include a base member, such as an acetabular shell or an augment, that is configured to couple with an augment, flange cup, mounting member, or any other suitable orthopedic attachment. Any of the implantable components may be include one or more porous surfaces. The porous surface may be textured by protrusions that connect to and extend from the surface. The sizes and concentration of the protrusions may be varied for specific applications to accommodate different implants and patient anatomies.
