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.

Abstract: A trial neck for hip surgery and a method of attaching a trial neck to a femoral canal implement. The trial neck includes a body portion including a bore for receiving a proximal end of a femoral canal implement. The trial neck also includes an elongate neck extending from the body portion. The trial neck further includes a locking mechanism comprising a lever. The lever has a first end. The lever also has a second end. The lever further has an engagement surface. The second end of the lever is actuable to urge the engagement surface against the proximal end of the femoral canal implement to secure the proximal end of the femoral canal implement within the bore.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing an orthopaedic prosthetic component can include identifying 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. Respective groups of struts intersect so as to define a respective plurality of nodes. The method can include the step of modifying modifying at least one of the struts or at least one of the nodes such that the porous three-dimensional structure comprises a lattice structure other than a Voronoi pattern. Instructions can then be generated to fabricate the porous three-dimensional structure.

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.
