Abstract: The present invention relates to a surgical spacer device (100) for a joint, comprising a substantially cylindrical or truncated-cone-shaped main body (101), internally hollow and configured for insertion in a distracted joint (1, 2); the main body (101) comprising: a first terminal surface (102) substantially flat and configured to abut onto a first bone portion (1) of the joint (1, 2); a second terminal surface (103) substantially annular and configured to abut onto a second bone surface (2) of the joint (1, 2) opposite the first bone portion (1), the second terminal surface (103) having a first opening (10) for access to the second bone portion (2); at least one lateral element (104) configured for maintaining a three-dimensional spaced structure between the first terminal surface (102) and the second terminal surface (103), the at least one lateral element (104) defining a second opening (20) configured for allowing a lateral access inside the main body (101) and further an access to the second bone porti

Abstract: A glenoid positioning device (100), in particular for a Kirschner wire, comprising: a hub (101) with a reference through-hole (110) and comprising three housings (102a, 102b, 102c) arranged radially; three slide elements (103a, 103b, 103c) slidably housed within the three housings (102a, 102b, 102c), respectively, and configured to interact with a glenoid cavity; wherein the three slide elements (103a, 103b, 103c) are configured to be radially extended or retracted to identify a circular area (2) of a glenoid cavity.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for surgical application of a glenoid anchor of a shoulder joint prosthesis and instruments advantageously used in the method. The method includes making a delto-pectoral incision providing a delto-pectoral access to a shoulder joint; with the delto-pectoral access being suitable for inserting at least one machining tool; and making a trans-deltoid incision providing a trans-deltoid access to the humeral head; with the trans-deltoid access being suitable for inserting a stem of a machining instrument to be mounted on the machining tool for machining the glenoid cavity.

Abstract: A device for resecting a femur includes a resection body provided with resection grooves configured to receive a cutting surgical instrument to obtain at least two sections of the femur. The resection body has two separate elements, selectively assembleable to each other in a stable and releasable manner. A first element is a cutting template, having the resection grooves. A second element is a measuring and reference member, having a plurality of measuring and reference holes configured to determine an angular offsetting with respect to a longitudinal axis of the femur, and an axial translation along the longitudinal axis of the femur between the two sections. A releasable holder is provided between the cutting template and the measuring and reference member. The measuring and reference holes are made on the measuring and reference member according to a matrix associated with axial and angular coordinates in ordered rows and columns.
