A total hip arthroplasty includes a femoral prosthesis and an acetabular prosthesis. The femoral prosthesis has a ball on a neck portion of a femoral component including a noncircular femoral body a portion coated with a porous bone ingrowth coating for noncemented fixation within a resected patient femur. The femoral body is tapered, to include a combination of a medial-lateral taper, an anterior-posterior taper, and a lateral-to-medial taper for secure seated fixation into the medullary canal of a resected femur. The acetabular prosthesis includes a hemispherical metal cup having a porous bone ingrowth surface for secure fixation within a prepared patient acetabular socket. A bearing insert is initially seated within the acetabular cup in a “trial” position without locking to determine cup placement and freedom of leg movement, and thereafter reseated in a “lock” position. A femoral broach and a bone punch tool are also provided.

International Classification:
A61B 17/80
Abstract:
A method, system, and apparatus for bone fusion. Bone fusion can be performed using an elongated plate having a top face and a bottom face and defining a plurality of screw apertures therethrough. The elongated plate has a longitudinal dimension between a first and second ends and a lateral dimension between first and second sides. The screw apertures are defined in a generally straight line along the longitudinal dimension of the elongated plate, and three or more of the screw apertures are configured to facilitate different trajectories of bone screws through each of the three or more screw apertures. The screw apertures are configured to facilitate trajectories of bone screws to secure at least three bones to the elongated plate.

Abstract:
Systems and methods for providing a medical tool cleaning and/or lubrication system are provided. A cleaning system may include an attachment interface configured to receive one or more medical device tool modules. The attachment interface may include one or more input or output couplings which are configured to connect the attachment interface to a reservoir which provides one or more fluids in an input/output pathway for the circulation of the fluids into the one or more medical device tool modules. The cleaning system may also include one or more fluid reservoirs which contain fluid to be circulated through the one or more medical device tool modules. The cleaning system may further comprise a driver system configured to at least partially actuate components of connected medical device tool modules while the modules are being cleaned.
