Abstract: A method of preparing a bone to receive an implant component includes planning one or more surgical cuts configured to provide the bone with a curved intersection between two surfaces, applying a mechanical restraint to an arm holding a cutting tool based on the one or more surgical cuts, and performing, subject to the mechanical restraint and by articulating the arm, the one or more surgical cuts using the cutting tool.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining a surgical plan comprising a first planned position of an implant and a second planned position of an augment relative to a bone. The augment is planned to provide support between the bone and the implant. The method also includes preparing the bone to receive both the implant in the first planned position and the augment in the second planned position by controlling a robotic device based on the first planned position of the implant and the second planned position of the augment.

Abstract: A system for facilitating arthroplasty procedures includes a robotic device, a reaming tool configured to interface with the robotic device, and a processing circuit communicable with the robotic device. The processing circuit is configured to obtain a surgical plan comprising a first planned position of an implant cup and a second planned position of an implant augment relative to a bone of a patient, determine a planned bone modification configured to prepare the bone to receive the implant cup in the first planned position and the implant augment in the second planned position, generate one or more virtual objects based on the planned bone modification, control the robotic device to constrain the cutting tool with the one or more virtual objects while the cutting tool interfaces with the robotic device and is operated to modify the bone in accordance with the planned bone modification.

Abstract: A method includes defining a virtual object and defining a first point and a second point associated with a virtual representation of a surgical tool. Movement of the virtual representation of the surgical tool corresponds to movement of the surgical tool in real space. The method includes controlling a robotic device coupled to the surgical tool to constrain the first point to the virtual object, determining that the first point is at a threshold position along the virtual object, and controlling the robotic device to guide the second point to the virtual object.

Abstract: A method of preparing a tibia to receive a tibial implant component includes performing a first set of cuts to prepare a floor interface surface on the tibia, wherein the floor interface surface includes a portion on each side of a tibial eminence extending above the floor interface surface on the tibia. The method further includes performing a second set of cuts to prepare a tibial eminence wall interface surface, wherein the wall interface surface extends substantially perpendicular to the floor interface surface between the floor interface surface and a top surface of the tibial eminence. The method further includes performing a third set of cuts to prepare a radiused intersection between the floor interface surface and the wall interface surface. The sets of cuts are performed subject to a cutting restraint guide. At least one set of cuts may be performed using a rotary cutter.

Abstract: A femoral prosthetic component includes a patellar guide portion, a pair of condyles projecting from the guide portion and forming an intercondylar notch therebetween, a bearing surface, and an interface surface configured to face a resected surface of a femur. The interface surface comprises an anterior face and a posterior face, and is substantially contoured between the anterior and posterior face to match a contoured surface of the femur. The substantially contoured interface surface may include at least one planar surface portion to abut a flat cut portion in the surface of the femur. This planar surface portion may be a distal flat at a distal face of the interface surface. The contoured interface surface may alternatively include a plurality of planar surface portions. The femoral prosthetic component is configured such that preparation of the bone to match the interface surface results in minimal resection of the distal femur.
