Abstract: Disclosed herein are an implant with an attachment feature and a method for attaching to the same. The implant may include a cavity with a porous layer disposed within a non-porous layer wherein the non-porous layer defines a chamber. The chamber may receive and confine liquefiable material and direct liquefiable material to permeate through the porous layer. A method of attaching a device to the implant may include liquefying a liquefiable portion of the device and allowing the liquefied material to interdigitate with the second layer and then solidify to prevent pullout.

Abstract: An apparatus may include a body extending from a first end to a second end. The first end of the body may include a first coupling element, and the second end of the body may include a second coupling element. The second end of the body may include a first engagement element that extends inwardly into the body and may be disposed between a peripheral edge of the body and the second coupling element. Methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for controlling a robotic system to facilitate a joint arthroplasty procedure includes generating a graphical user interface comprising a visualization of an implant plan and an indication of a user-defined value for an implant planning parameter, and comparing the user-defined value for the implant planning parameter to the range. The method includes providing a marking at the indication of the user-defined value on the graphical user interface and receiving an update to the implant plan, wherein the update to the implant plan causes a change in the user-defined value. The method further includes determining that the change in the user-defined value moved the user-defined value to within the selected preferred range.

Abstract: An assembly for attachment to a first implant component has a size and shape of a second implant component to be implanted together with the first implant component. The assembly includes a first body and a second body removably connected to the first body. In a temporary configuration, the first and second bodies are prevented from separating while the first and second bodies permit relative movement therebetween. A modular kit includes a plurality of the first bodies each having a different size or shape, and a plurality of the second bodies each having a different size or shape. A method of assembling the assembly includes removably connecting the first body to the second body, such that the first and second bodies are prevented from separating while permitting relative movement therebetween, and positioning the assembly on the first implant component.
