Patent number: 12408960Abstract: A bone plate comprises a plate body and at least one tab. The plate body defines an inner body surface configured to face an underlying bone, an outer body surface opposite the inner body surface, and an outer side surface that extends between the inner body surface and the outer body surface. The outer side surface defines an outer perimeter of the plate body. The at least one tab includes a head and an arm that extends from the plate body to the head. The tab defines a tab aperture that extends through the head and is configured to receive a bone anchor. The bone anchor can be coupled with a screw hole in the nail. The arm is configured to deflect with respect to the plate body so as to move the head between a pre-fixation position and a fixation position spaced from the pre-fixation position.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2024Date of Patent: September 9, 2025Assignee: DePuy Synthes Products, Inc.Inventors: Josef Gabelberger, David Cowens, Joshua McManus, Thomas Keyer, Catherine Santis, Robert Khatchadourian, Peter Van Citters, David W.

Publication number: 20240245517Abstract: An acetabular shell component includes a solid substrate, a porous outer layer coupled to the solid substrate, a porous inner layer coupled to the solid substrate, and an inner bearing coupled to the porous inner layer. One or more adjuncts extend outward from the porous outer layer. Each adjunct includes an outer surface that defines a customized patient-specific negative contour shaped to conform to a positive contour of a patient's bone. A method for manufacturing the acetabular shell component using an additive manufacturing process is also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2024Publication date: July 25, 2024Inventors: Ryan C. Keefer, Bernice A. Gatrell, Andrew M. Hudson, Christel M. Wagner, Catherine Santis, Daniel N. Huff, Paul B. Sade, SR.
