A bone reamer includes a shaft having a first and a second end. The second end is configured to connect to a rotating power source. A head of the reamer includes a rear face connected to the first end of the shaft, a cutting face on an opposing side of the head relative to the rear face, and a perimeter portion having an inner perimeter diameter and an outer perimeter diameter. The outer perimeter diameter defines outer boundaries of the rear face and the cutting face. A blade member of the reamer is disposed upon the cutting face and extends at least across the inner perimeter diameter of the perimeter portion. A center drill bit is disposed on the cutting face. The drill bit and cutting blade are concentric about a center axis of the reamer.

Bone reamer and methods of use

Implants, device, systems and methods for replacing an articulation surface in a joint, for example, a reverse glenoid implant with a baseplate, a central screw, a peripheral screw, a modular taper, and a post. Methods for implanting the glenoid implant are also disclosed.

The internal threaded surface of the internal member has more thread starts than the external threaded surface of the screw.

Reverse shoulder systems and methods

A shoulder assembly is provided which includes a base member including a collar; a helical structure extending from the collar in a distal direction; and a first pathway projecting distally of the collar and through the helical structure adjacent to an inner periphery thereof, the first pathway being generally transverse to the helical structure and extending in a space between successive portions of the helical structure; and a locking device comprising a proximal support and a first arm projecting distally of the proximal support, the first arm configured to be disposed in the first pathway projecting distally of the collar when the proximal support is disposed adjacent to the collar; where the first arm is disposed through bone in the space between successive portions of the helical structure when the shoulder assembly is implanted.

Stemless prosthesis anchor component

Embodiments of the present invention include a convertible prosthesis that is capable of conversion from a humeral head replacement to a reverse reconstruction without any removal of parts integrated into the patient's bony anatomy (e.g. implant stems). A desired overall implant inclination angle may be achieved by matching various implant stems with various reverse inserts, thus permitting a resection surface to be matched with an implant stem selection while also permitting a desired overall implant inclination angle to be achieved through the selection of an appropriate insert.

Systems for reverse shoulder implants

A stemless humeral shoulder assembly having a base member and an anchor advanceable into the base member. The base member can include a distal end that can be embedded in bone and a proximal end that can be disposed at a bone surface. The base member can also have a plurality of spaced apart arms projecting from the proximal end to the distal end. The anchor can project circumferentially into the arms and into a space between the arms. When the anchor is advanced into the base member, the anchor can be exposed between the arms. A recess can project distally from a proximal end of the anchor to within the base member. The recess can receive a mounting member of an anatomical or reverse joint interface.

Humeral implant anchor system

A single-use handle is configured to attach to a working shaft that can support a sounder for measuring the medullary canal of a proximal radius, and a planarizer that is configured to planarize a proximal edge of the proximal radius after the proximal radius has been resected.
