Abstract: Provided herein are devices and methods for connecting a transcutaneous external prosthetic device to a bone, such as a bone of an amputee. The device is a two-piece transcutaneous implant device to provide reversible connection for ease of implantation, reliability, and relatively easy access for removal, while maximizing tissue ingrowth to reduce risk of infection and attendant adverse outcomes. The devices provided herein comprise a prosthetic interface and a bone anchor. A through-hole that traverses a longitudinal length of the prosthetic interface and at least a longitudinal portion of the bone anchor receives a fastener to reversibly connect the prosthetic interface to the bone anchor implanted in bone. A connector may connect to a failsafe element which, in turn, connects to an external prosthetic device.

Abstract: An orthopaedic joint assembly for attachment to a bone is provided. The joint assembly includes a body having an interior wall defining an opening in the body and a fastener. The fastener has a portion of the fastener fitted through the opening of the body. The fastener is rigidly connected to the body.

Abstract: An acetabular cup assembly for attachment to an acetabulum is provided. The cup assembly includes an acetabular cup including a first connector and a fastener. The fastener cooperates with the cup. The fastener includes a second connector. The first and second connectors cooperate to rigidly connect the fastener to the cup.
