20130261754 | STEMLESS HUMERAL COMPONENT OF AN ORTHOPAEDIC SHOULDER PROSTHESIS - A stemless humeral component for replacing the humeral head of a patient's humerus includes a support flange having a number of cantilevered legs extending distally away from a bottom surface thereof. Instruments and methods for surgically installing the stemless humeral component are also disclosed. | 10-03-2013 |
20130325132 | TRIAL INSTRUMENT ASSEMBLY FOR USE IN A SURGICAL PROCEDURE - A trial instrument assembly for use in a surgical procedure to replace an orthopaedic joint includes a trial implant having a stem portion for fitting within a prepared cavity in the patient's bone. The stem portion defines a stem axis. A neck portion is connected to the stem portion to protrude from the cavity when the stem portion is within the cavity. The assembly includes a plane guide that extends from the neck portion in a plane that is selected from (i) a plane perpendicular to the stem axis, and (ii) a plane parallel to the stem axis, for use in determining the location of the trial implant relative to an anatomical feature in a direction measured along the stem axis or perpendicular to the stem axis, respectively. | 12-05-2013 |
