Abstract: An insert for a surgical apparatus tray and method of preparing a surgical apparatus tray are described. The insert may include an upper part defining at least one support configured to receive an item of surgical equipment, and defining a first plane and having a plurality of edges defining a polygonal shape. A first side wall may extend downwardly from a first edge of the upper part and define a second plane. The first side wall may have a first, male attachment feature. A second side wall may extend downwardly from a second edge of the upper part and have a second, female attachment feature. The first attachment feature may be configured to mate with the form of the female attachment feature when the first side wall is moved in a direction parallel to the first plane and the second plane to connect the insert to a further insert having a similar construction.

Abstract: An orthopaedic surgical instrument assembly includes a hemispherical component having a convex outer surface extending from a circular rim to an apex point, and a plurality of cutting teeth extending outwardly from the outer surface between the circular rim and the apex point. Each cutting tooth of the plurality of cutting teeth includes an elongated cutting edge that is positioned on an arced imaginary line of a plurality of arced imaginary lines extending outwardly from the apex point of the hemispherical component. A method of manufacturing an orthopaedic surgical instrument assembly is also disclosed.

Abstract: A surgical instrument assembly includes a metallic hemispherical component and a driver component removably coupled to the hemispherical component. The metallic hemispherical component has a convex outer surface configured to engage a patient's natural acetabulum, a concave inner surface positioned opposite the outer surface and defining a cavity in the hemispherical component, a plurality of cutting teeth extending outwardly from the outer surface, and a plurality of apertures defined in the inner surface. The driver component has a shank and a plurality of ribs secured to, and extending outwardly from, the shank. Each rib has a tab that is received in a corresponding aperture of the hemispherical component to secure the driver component to the hemispherical component.
