Abstract: A femoral component of a hip implant, where the femoral component may be used specifically in a neck sparing resection and may include a shortened stem (with respect to a conventional stem) having a terminal flare portion for internally contacting a medial calcar portion of the proximal femur, and a significant curvature on its medial side. Other features of the femoral component include, flat side portions on the anterior and posterior sides of the stem, a lateral fin or a wing or T-back to aid in resisting torsional forces. The femoral component may also include a sagittal slot for proper fitting and placement in the femoral canal. The femoral component may also include a neck component that is modular with respect to the stem component. A head component, whether monoblock or modular with respect to the neck component, may also be utilized as part of the femoral component.

Abstract: A femoral prosthesis. The femoral prosthesis includes an implant body having a proximal end and a distal end and a shoulder at the proximal end, the shoulder being structured and dimensioned for a tight press fit into the neck of a femur. The implant body includes a trunk at the distal end, the trunk having a wedge formed by a tapered portion extending in the direction of the distal end of the implant, body. The implant, body also includes a medial column extending from the shoulder toward the distal end and a lateral column extending from the shoulder toward the distal end. The wedge, the medial column, and the lateral column to provide multi-planar stability for the implant body and surface area for fixation of the implant body.

Abstract: A tibial component for use in conjunction with a knee replacement surgery. An inferior surface of the tibial component may be concave to thereby improve bonding between the tibial component and a tibia. The tibial component may produce low stress in the cement mantle during in-vivo loading. A stem extending from the inferior surface of the tibial component may include an anterior curvature to facilitate the use of minimally evasive surgical techniques. The stem may further include medial-lateral wing portions with a posterior curvature to provide improved support.

Abstract: A prosthetic femoral implant for use in a hip joint, as a ball and socket type joint, is disclosed. The implant includes a modular neck having a variety of adjustable positions to adjust the lateral offset and version angle of the femoral implant in relation to the femur. The implant further includes a broad, full collar for providing a compression force increasing the interdigitation between the interface of the bone, implant and cement. The implant also includes a stem having a depression having a roughened porous surface for resisting the increased torsional loads placed on the implant due to the increased lateral offset and version angle. The stem further comprises three distinct zones, each zone having its own roughened surface creating a tripartite differential porosity.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to revision hip surgery or total hip arthroplasty situations in which it is difficult for a surgeon to secure or fix an acetabular cup or shell to the bone due, for whatever reason, to bone loss or other bone deficiency. The system may comprise a plurality of fasteners and an acetabular cup or shell having a plurality of openings to thereby allow the plurality of fasteners to be inserted at diverging angles to create multiple fixation points to distribute load and secure the shell to available bone. The system may also include a bearing insert for receiving a femoral head component and a plurality of spacers for creating a cement mantle.

Abstract: An orthopedic device is disclosed for restoring the normal or natural joint mechanics in, for example, a hip joint. The device includes a first component, such as an acetabular component in a hip implant, that includes a convex articulation surface and a second component, such as a femoral component in a hip implant, that includes a concave articulation surface. It will be appreciated that the convex articulation surface of the device disclosed herein articulates with the concave articulation surface in a mating engagement that may be reversed with respect to the traditional hip implant, in which the concave articulation surface is part of the acetabular component and the convex articulation surface is part of the femoral component.

Abstract: A cementless femoral hip stem component. The hip stem component includes an elongate stem, a proximal body, and a collar disposed on the proximal body and extending outward therefrom in a sideways direction to form a ledge. The proximal body defines at least a majority of a frustoconical shape. The ledge formed by the collar includes a tapered undersurface, beneath which extends the proximal body. The tapered undersurface of the ledge and the proximal body extend in different directions and thereby cooperatively define a double-flared contact surface configured to enable subsidable engagement of said double-flared contact surface with the femur at two different rates of subsidence within the femur. An abrupt, male corner is formed by the stem and the proximal body and is sufficiently abrupt to provide enhanced bone ingrowth stimulation.

Abstract: A prosthetic device and method of using the device is disclosed. The device may include a busing insert, a femoral head component, a neck component that may be either integral or modular, and a stem component having a proximal body portion and a distal portion. The proximal body portion may include such features as a recess for receiving a portion of the modular neck, a proximal conical flare having a bottom surface with a rounded contour, an anterior metaphyseal tapering flare, as well as other features. The distal portion may include a coronal slot, a sagittal slot, a helical slot, or a combination thereof. The above features may be provided for increasing the intrinsic stability of the device and for resisting torsional loads placed on the device.
