Abstract: Provided herein are processing systems, computer readable media, and methods for processing undeliverable delivery items. A system includes a camera and a hardware processor operably connected to the camera and configured to perform operations that include capturing, using the camera, an image of a delivery item that is undeliverable to an intended recipient or at an intended delivery location, the image including an address of the intended recipient. The operations also include embedding, by the hardware processor, processing data with the image to thereby generate an embedded image as a printable file, the embedded image including the image of the delivery item framed by a template area that includes a reason for the delivery item being undeliverable. The operations also include notifying a sender of the delivery item that the delivery item is undeliverable via a hard copy printout of the embedded image.

Abstract: An elbow prosthesis includes a capitellar implant having an articulating head and a stem. The articulating head includes a first passage along a first axis, a second passage along a second axis, and a receiving groove. The stem includes a proximal end and a connecting end. The connecting end includes a curved body having a bore. The curved body selectively mates with the receiving groove such that the bore axially aligns with the first axis of the first passage in an assembled position for collectively receiving a securing member. The second axis is located between the first axis and the proximal end of the stem.

Abstract: An elbow prosthesis constructed in accordance to one example of the present teachings can include a capitellar implant having an articulating head and a stem. The articulating head can have a first articulating surface positioned generally between a lateral side and a medial side. A passage can extend through the articulating head from the lateral side to the medial side. The articulating head can define a counterbore formed at the lateral side and that is concentric with the passage. According to other features, the elbow prosthesis can include a coronoid implant that has a body and a stem. The body can have a superior articulating surface that includes a central ridge and an anterior buttress. The central ridge can be configured to accommodate articulation with a trochlea in an implanted position.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for replacing a selected portion of the anatomy is described. In particular, a prosthesis can be provided to replace a portion of an articulating joint, such as an elbow. The apparatus can be modular for various reasons and each of the modular portions can include a different dimension to achieve a selected result. For example, the prosthesis can achieve a different size condylar replacement, a selected offset, a selected articulation, or combinations thereof.

Abstract: A bone fixation device comprises an elongated body. The elongated body includes a first end portion with a coil and an opposite second end portion with an elongated tail. The second end portion also includes an attachment portion configured for engagement with a fastener.

Abstract: A bone fixation assembly to promote healing of a bone fracture comprises a first bone engagement member and a second bone engagement member. The first bone engagement member comprises an elongated body with proximal and distal end portions, a projection, and an inner surface defining an opening. The second bone engagement member comprises a main body, first and second outer surfaces, an inner surface defining an aperture, and an inner surface defining an opening spaced from the aperture. One of the end portions of first bone engagement member is dimensioned to extend through the aperture of the second bone engagement member. The opening of the first bone engagement member and the opening of the second bone engagement member are aligned to receive a fastener when the elongated body extends through the aperture and contacts an outer surface of the second bone engagement member.

Abstract: Systems for modular bone fixation may include first, second, and at least one third portion to aid in fracture reduction, simplify the surgical procedure, increase fracture fixation strength, and reduce irritation to the patient caused by the implant. In some examples, the at least one third portion may be separable from the first and second portions to further simplify the surgical procedure and reduce irritation to the patient.

Abstract: A tool provides for coupling a first prosthetic to a second prosthetic. The tool can include a first arm having a first concave bearing surface configured to apply a force in a first direction. The tool can also include a second arm having a hook shaped member. The hook shaped member can have a second concave bearing surface configured to apply a force in a second direction opposite the first direction. The first arm and the second arm can be generally parallel, and the first arm can be translatable with respect to the second arm. The tool can include a translation force mechanism, which can apply force to the first arm and the second arm so as to cause generally parallel translation of the first arm and second arm.

Abstract: A bone fixation apparatus comprises a plurality of boundary portions. Each boundary portion defines and surrounds an opening for a fastener. The bone fixation apparatus also comprises a plurality of interconnecting portions. Each interconnecting portion has two opposed ends and a length extending between the opposed ends. Each interconnecting portion is joined at one of its opposed ends to a first boundary portion and at the other of its opposed ends to a second boundary portion so as to extend radially from the first and second boundary portions. Each boundary portion is joined only to at least one interconnecting portion and is free of any structure extending radially from the boundary portion other than the at least one interconnecting portion. Three of the plurality of boundary portions and two of the interconnecting portions are arranged in a zigzag configuration with one of the three boundary portions being located in a central position.
