wherein at least one of the surgical items comprises a surgical implant and wherein the surgical implant comprises:

a glenoid implant,

a humeral implant,

a fixation device, or

anchoring hardware.

2. The kit of claim 1 , wherein one or more of the plurality of surgical items includes an accelerometer.

3. The kit of claim 1 , wherein one or more of the plurality of surgical items includes one or more sensors.

4. The kit of claim 1 , wherein the kit includes:

a plurality of sounders,

a plurality of compactors,

a plurality of punching tools,

a plurality of rasping tools, or

a plurality of surface planing tools.

5. The kit of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the surgical items is a patient-specific surgical item that includes one or more features designed for an anatomy of a specific patient.

6. A medical device system comprising:

a plurality of surgical items, wherein each surgical item in the plurality of surgical items includes a light source; and

a processing device external to each surgical item in the plurality of surgical items, wherein the processing device is configured to communicate with the plurality of surgical items and control the light source of each of the surgical items based on a surgical procedure, wherein the processing device is configured to control the light source of each of the surgical items so as to identify all of the surgical items in the plurality of surgical items and to specifically distinguish a particular one of the surgical items while identifying all of the surgical items, wherein the processing device comprises a visualization device that is further configured to present one or more virtual elements based on the surgical procedure.

7. The medical device system of claim 6 , wherein the processing device is configured to illuminate a light source of the particular one of the surgical items based on a specified use of the particular one of the surgical items defined in a surgical plan associated with the surgical procedure.

8. The medical device system of claim 6 , wherein the processing device is configured to control the light source of each of the surgical items such that at least two or more different surgical items in the plurality of surgical items illuminate with different colors.

9. The medical device system of claim 6 , wherein the processing device is configured to control the light source of each of the surgical items to specifically distinguish the particular one of the surgical items with a different light color.

10. The medical device system of claim 6 , wherein a lighting effect distinguishes the particular one of the surgical items.

11. The medical device system of claim 6 , wherein a lighting intensity distinguishes the particular one of the surgical items.

12. The medical device system of claim 6 , wherein the processing device controls the light source of each of the surgical items to distinguish a first subset of the surgical items, a second subset of the surgical items, and a third subset of the surgical items, wherein the first subset of the surgical items corresponds to already used surgical items, the second subset of the surgical items corresponds the particular one of the surgical items which is a currently used surgical item, and the third subset of the surgical items corresponds to subsequently needed surgical items.

13. The medical device system of claim 6 , wherein the one or more virtual elements are configured to identify one or more surgical items of the plurality of surgical items.

14. The medical device system of claim 6 , wherein the one or more virtual elements are configured to provide surgical guidance based on the surgical procedure.

15. A medical device system comprising:

a plurality of surgical items, wherein each surgical item in the plurality of surgical items includes a light source;
