Publication number: 20250090327Abstract: A system for replacing a natural articular surface on a bone may include a bone anchoring component with a bone engagement surface securable to a resected surface of the bone, an arthroplasty prosthesis, and a component attachment feature positioned intermediate a prosthesis attachment feature and the bone anchoring component. The arthroplasty prosthesis may include a joint-facing side with an articular surface, a bone-facing side opposite the joint-facing side, and the prosthesis attachment feature on the bone-facing side with an outer prosthesis projection including a rotary recess formed therein. The component attachment feature may include a component projection shaped for reception within the rotary recess. The component attachment feature may rotatably couple with the prosthesis attachment feature proximally, and couple with the bone anchoring component distally, enabling the bone anchoring component to rotatably move relative to the bone-facing side of the arthroplasty prosthesis.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2024Publication date: March 20, 2025Applicant: NGUYEN PARTNERSHIP, LLLPInventors: Vuong Binh NGUYEN, Andrew RYNEARSON
