Methods, systems and devices for pre-operatively planned shoulder surgery guides and implants. Pre-operative planning methods for designing glenoid implants and prostheses, particularly with patient-specific augmentation, based on considerations of multiple factors affecting the outcome of shoulder surgery. Methods of using surgery guides and implants, including adaptive glenoid implants, in patients undergoing shoulder surgery.

Methods, systems and devices for pre-operatively planned shoulder surgery guides and implants

A method of guiding a glenoid prosthesis is disclosed. The method includes preoperatively determining a position and an orientation of a guide feature of a glenoid guide of the present disclosure based on a scapula of a specific patient, and engaging the glenoid guide with the scapula; and inserting a pin having an axis through the guide feature to or through the scapula.

Shoulder patient specific instrument

A system and method for streamlining inventory and ordering for certain surgical supplies. The method includes scanning, by an imaging device, a surgical site and receiving, by a processor communicatively coupled to the imaging device, data from the scan. The method also includes the processor analyzing the data, where the analyzing includes searching the data to identify predefined key features in the data that are parameters utilized by a Statistical Shape Model (SSM). The processor applies the SSM to generate a three dimensional replica of a predetermined portion of the surgical site. The processor also defines, based on the replica, at last one of: surgical planes or orientations. The processor then utilizes the replica and the surgical planes or orientations to select a solution.

Computer modeling procedures for surgical simulation and planning

A patient specific glenoid guide is provided to facilitate properly aligned implantation of a glenoid prosthesis into a patient. The guide shape is designed preoperatively based on the unique configuration of the scapula of the patient. The guide orientation is chosen preoperatively based on one or more of the bone structure of the patient, the wear pattern of the patient's glenoid cavity, the anchoring means of the glenoid prosthesis, or other aspects.

A method is provided for automatic identification of the contours of at least one portion of a predefined bone on the basis of a plurality of images representing parallel sections through a measurement volume including the portion of bone and which are obtained by a medical imaging technique. The method includes: a step of obtaining at least one shape of closed contour in at least one of the filtered images; a step of associating with each of the shapes a tag selected within a predefined bone-related nomenclature; a step of classifying the shapes so as to form at least one group of shapes delimiting a common volume isolated in space; a step of selecting the shapes of the group of target shapes.
