Publication number: 20200253742Abstract: A glenoid component includes a body, a first, convex surface, a second, concave surface, a third surface connecting the first and second surfaces, a channel, and at least one alignment member. The channel extends from a first channel opening of the first surface through the body to a second channel opening defined on the third surface and has a channel axis extending through the first and second channel openings. The channel axis intersects a first plane defined by the first channel opening at an angle transverse to the first plane. The channel is configured to receive a bone engagement member to attach the body to a shoulder bone. The at least one alignment member extends from the first surface to align the body to the shoulder bone. The bone engagement member can attach the body to the shoulder bone.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2020Publication date: August 13, 2020Applicant: Shoulder Innovations, LLCInventor: Ioannis P.
