    Abstract: A base member of a prosthetic stemless shoulder implant may include a proximal collar, a central anchor, and at least one peripheral anchor. The proximal collar may have a proximal surface and a distal bone-engaging surface opposite the proximal surface. The central anchor may extend distally from the bone-engaging surface and define an opening extending from the bone-engaging surface into the central anchor for receiving a humeral head component of the prosthetic stemless shoulder implant. The at least one peripheral anchor may be positioned radially outwardly of the central anchor and extend distally from the bone-engaging surface. The peripheral anchor may be frangibly connected to the proximal collar.

    Abstract: A three-dimensional printing apparatus includes a base, a first build plate, and a second build plate. The base includes a build platform. The first build plate is attached to the base and is movable in vertical directions to a position spaced vertically from the build platform. The second build plate is supported by the first build plate such that the second build plate is spaced vertically from the first build plate. A plurality of objects is fabricated by the apparatus. A first object is fabricated on the first build plate. The first build plate is moved vertically. A second object is fabricated on the second build plate.

    Abstract: A method for separating an implant from a bone, includes interfacing a tool with an implant including a flange, the flange including a proximal surface and a distal surface, the distal surface bearing on or facing the bone, the flange including an aperture defined through the flange; inserting an elongate element through the aperture from the proximal surface to the distal surface and into the bone; and partially separating a bonding interface between the implant and the bone using the elongate element.

    Abstract: Techniques and systems are described for planning shoulder stability enhancement surgeries. A computing system may determine a size of a predicted premorbid glenoid bone of the patient of a patient, a size of a Bankart lesion on a morbid glenoid bone of the patient, and a size of a geodesic surface on a 3-dimensional model of a predicted premorbid humerus of the patient. The geodesic surface is defined at least in part by a projected medial border of a Hill-Sachs lesion on a morbid humerus and a projected medial border of a footprint of a humeral head of the morbid humerus. The computing system may determine, based on the three areal sizes, whether bone loss of the patient involves joint engagement. The computing system may output an indication of whether a shoulder stability enhancement surgery that includes a bone graft is recommended for the patient.

    Abstract: A joint prosthesis system includes a femoral component that has an articular side, a bone facing side, and medial and lateral condylar portions. The medial and lateral condylar portions at least partially define an intercondylar recess located therebetween and have a first concave surface extending in a mediolateral direction across the medial and lateral condylar portions. A first modular component has a second concave surface and is connectable to the femoral component such that, when the first modular component is connected to the femoral component, the first and second concave surfaces come together to form a transverse opening extending in the mediolateral direction. A first tibial assembly has a baseplate component and a head extending therefrom. The head defines an axle opening that extends therethrough. An axle is configured to be received within the transverse opening and axle opening so as to connect the tibial assembly to the femoral component.
