Abstract: A method of performing surgery on a bone includes providing a robotically controlled bone preparation system and creating at least one hole in the bone with the robotically controlled bone preparation system prior to machining the bone. The bone hole aligns with a hole or a post in a guide for a manual cutting tool. If the robot fails during surgery, or if the surgeon does not wish to complete the procedure with the robot, the guide is attached to the bone after aligning the guide hole with the bone hole. The surgery is completed manually after the guide is attached to the bone, and the robot is not used after the guide is attached to the bone.

Abstract: A dynamic trialing method generally allows a surgeon to perform a preliminary bone resection on the distal femur according to a curved or planar resection profile. With the curved resection profile, the distal-posterior femoral condyles may act as a femoral trial component after the preliminary bone resection. This may eliminate the need for a separate femoral trial component, reducing the cost and complexity of surgery. With the planar resection profile, shims or skid-like inserts that correlate to the distal-posterior condyles of the final insert may be attached to the distal femur after the preliminary bone resection to facilitate intraoperative trialing. The method and related components may also provide the ability of a surgeon to perform iterative intraoperative kinematic analysis and gap balancing, providing the surgeon the ability to perform necessary ligament and/or other soft tissue releases and fine tune the final implant positions based on data acquired during the surgery.

Abstract: A glenoid implant system includes an anchoring structure and a glenoid liner. The anchoring structure includes a base, a wall, and a ledge. The wall extends from a first surface of the base. The ledge extends generally along at least a portion of a first side of the wall, thereby forming an undercut. The wall has a slot formed in a second opposing side of the wall. The glenoid liner is configured to be removably coupled to the anchoring structure. The glenoid liner has a cap portion, a main body, and a deflectable finger. The main body extends from the cap portion and includes a lip configured to engage the undercut of the anchoring structure. The deflectable finger extends from the cap portion. The deflectable finger has a protrusion configured to engage the slot of the anchoring structure to aid in securing the glenoid liner to the anchoring structure.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for bone preparation with designed areas having accurate tolerance profiles to enable improved initial fixation and stability for cementless implants and to improve long-term bone ingrowth/ongrowth to an implant. One method includes preparing a bone surface to receive a prosthetic implant thereon by resecting the bone surface using a first cutting path to create a first resected region and resecting the bone of the patient using a second cutting path to create a second resected region at least partially overlapping the first resection region. The second cutting path is different than the first cutting path and either manual or robotic cutting tools can be used for creating the first and second resected regions.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are patellar implants and methods to prepare bone for receiving the same. The patellar implant may include an articulating surface with an elliptically shaped median ridge. The anterior surface of the patellar implant may have a non-planar surface to engage with a resected natural patella. The non-planar surface may allow for varying thickness of the patellar implant. The patellar implant may include dual attachment features to secure patellar implant to a resected patella by onlay and inlay techniques. A method for attaching a patellar implant to a patella may include onlay and inlay techniques and may further include bone preparation at the implant-bone interface.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of designing and fabricating prosthetic implants having a sagittal wall in which at least a portion thereof traverses a non-linear path. A method of fabricating such a prosthetic implant may include generating a virtual bone model based on image information obtained from at least one bone, determining a proposed height of the prosthetic implant at a first location on the virtual bone model, determining a proposed resection depth into the at least one bone at the first location based at least in part on the proposed height of the prosthetic implant, and determining a curved resection path across a portion of the virtual bone model. The curved resection path may intersect the first location and the prosthetic implant may have a curved sagittal wall corresponding to the curved resection path.
