Abstract: A humeral component of a prosthetic assembly that is used in repairing or reconstructing a joint between a humerus and a scapula that includes a stemless portion and a liner portion. The liner portion is attached to the stemless portion and adapted to receive a ball portion of a cooperating “reverse” type glenoid component.

Abstract: A pre-operative surgical planning system utilizes machine learning classification to provide candidate elements of a pre-operative surgical plan. The pre-operative surgical planning system may comprise a machine learning reconstruction engine that is trained with artificial computer models of physiologically compromised anatomical structures.

Abstract: In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to orthopedic components. In some embodiments, an orthopedic component comprises a stem portion including a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the stem portion is configured to be inserted into a bone, an anatomical portion located at the proximal end of the stem portion, and a plate extending away from the stem portion such that a gap exists between the plate and the stem portion, wherein at least a portion of the plate extends toward the distal end of the stem portion.

Abstract: Convertible shoulder arthroplasty systems and configurations for components thereof are described. In some embodiments, an implant component is provided. The implant component includes one of a glenoid component comprising a concave outer surface, and a glenosphere component comprising a convex outer surface. The system may also include one of a first baseplate comprising a central bossed portion extending from an underside thereof and a central aperture disposed therethrough or a second baseplate comprising a central bossed portion extending from a top side thereof and a central aperture disposed there through. In some implementations, an anchor boss comprising a central aperture extending therethrough is provided. The system may include a central compression screw configured to be secured through the central aperture and, thereby, securely compress the first baseplate, the second baseplate or the anchor boss against the patient bone.

Abstract: A joint spacer is provided for treatment of a joint of a human subject, the joint spacer including a pouch having a wall including a dermal graft material. The joint spacer is configured to be inserted into a space of the joint, and is shaped, when the pouch is inserted into the space and filled, to provide mechanical support to the joint. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: The present invention related to a joint positioning device for positioning a joint and methods for using such devices. The joint positioning device may comprise a patient support comprising a substantially flat surface, the patient support configured to be positioned proximate to a chair; a shoulder pole mounted to the patient support, the shoulder pole oriented substantially perpendicular to a substantially flat surface of the patient support; and a cylindrical shoulder pad mounted to the shoulder pole, the shoulder pad oriented substantially perpendicular to the shoulder pole. The joint positioning device may further comprise a vertical pillar, the vertical pillar oriented substantially perpendicular to the substantially flat surface of the patient support.
