Abstract: Disclosed are improved methods, apparatus and/or systems for securing and/or anchoring tissue structures to bones, including unicortical soft tissue fixation.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices, methods and/or systems for securing tissue to bone, including a suture anchor implant having a body through which a suture eyelet extends transversely, and one or more suture pinch slits extending proximally from the suture eyelet, the suture pinch slit(s) angled relative to the longitudinal axis of the anchor.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices, methods and/or systems for a partial glenoid implant for use during glenoid arthroplasty, including related surgical methods and instruments.

Abstract: A glenoid implant for reverse shoulder prosthesis, having a base for anchoring the implant to a bone formed by a rod configured to extend through the thickness of the bone from a glenoid fossa, the rod including through-holes, and by screws for anchoring the rod configured to cross radially the rod, via the through-holes, and the bone, when the glenoid implant is implanted on the bone.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices, methods and/or systems for securing tissue to bone, including a suture anchor implant having a body with an internal cavity and one or more helical cutting flutes positioned on an external surface of the body which direct at least a portion of the cut bony material into the internal cavity as the body is rotated into bone.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for treatment of a bone. The apparatus may include an implant. The implant may include an implant tail and an implant head configured to expand, inside the bone, from a collapsed state to an expanded state. The apparatus may include an intramedullary rod defining a central longitudinal rod axis. The intramedullary rod may include a guide segment configured to guide the implant head into the bone and support the implant tail. The intramedullary rod may include an elongated extension member spaced radially apart from the central longitudinal axis. The extension member may be configured to provide clearance for the implant head as the implant head is advanced, in the collapsed state, into the bone. The extension member may be configured to provide clearance for the implant head in the expanded state.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices, methods and/or systems for securing tissue to bone, including a suture anchor implant having a body through which a suture eyelet extends transversely, and one or more suture pinch slits extending proximally from the suture eyelet, the suture pinch slit(s) angled relative to the longitudinal axis of the anchor.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices, methods and/or systems for securing tissue to bone, including a suture anchor implant having a body through which a suture eyelet extends transversely, and one or more suture pinch slits extending proximally from the suture eyelet, the suture pinch slit(s) angled relative to the longitudinal axis of the anchor such that a distal end of at least one suture pinch slit is positioned within a suture recess extending along the body and a proximal end of the at least one suture pinch slit is positioned outside of the suture recess.

Abstract: A prosthetic device configured to function as a joint has a first joint component configured to be fixed to a first bone and a second joint component configured to engage the first joint component. The second joint component has an anchoring base configured to be fixed to a second bone, and a cup configured to be connected to the anchoring base. The cup has a cylindrical wall defining an outer surface of the cup, a cavity formed by a spherical recess inside of a circular edge at a top of the cylindrical wall, and an attachment post extending away from the cavity and configured to connect to the anchoring base. The attachment post is aligned with a center of a circle defined by the circular edge and an axis of the attachment post is parallel to the cylindrical wall.

Abstract: A cannulated suture anchor may include a threaded portion and a tip portion. The threaded portion may include a continuous thread from a proximal end to a distal end and a suture opening located in the body of the threaded portion. The tip portion may be provided at the distal end of the threaded portion and may include a frustoconical, non-threaded outer surface. The cannulated suture anchor may be inserted into bone with an awl in a single step. Methods of using the cannulated suture anchor are also provided.
