  • Publication number: 20230347013
    Abstract: An implantable device includes a portion that is constructed such that at least a majority of the portion, as measured by volume, comprises Ti64 (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy. Additionally, the portion is bendable to a bend angle of at least about 50-degrees about a bend axis while maintaining structural integrity.

  • Publication number: 20230346561
    Abstract: An orthopaedic prosthetic component can include a porous three-dimensional Voronoi structure shaped to be implanted in a patient’s body. The porous three-dimensional Voronoi structure can include a plurality of struts, a number of pores, a first surface, and a second surface. The plurality of struts can define randomized interconnected organicized cells, wherein respective groups of struts intersect so as to define a respective plurality of nodes. The number of pores can be defined by the organicized cells. The second surface can be spaced from the first surface along a transverse axis. An intermediate portion can be between the first surface and the second surface. The first surface can have a first porosity and the intermediate portion can have an intermediate portion porosity that is different from the first porosity.

  • Publication number: 20230071706
    Abstract: An orthopaedic prosthetic component is provided. The orthopaedic prosthetic component comprises a porous three-dimensional structure shaped to be implanted in a patient's body. The porous three-dimensional structure comprises a plurality of unit cells. At least one unit cell comprises a first geometric structure having a first geometry and comprising a plurality of first struts, and a second geometric structure having a second geometry and comprising a plurality of second struts connected to a number of the plurality of first struts to form the second geometric structure.

  • Publication number: 20230037200
    Abstract: A method of making an implantable device includes directing a projection of laser energy having a plurality of adjacent energy pixels on a build surface atop a bed of powder, thereby forming a layer of the implantable device. The directing step is repeated a plurality of times, in a layer-by-layer manner, such that a totality of the formed layers define at least a portion of the implantable device.
