Abstract

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for repairing a defect on a portion of an articular surface of a human body, particularly of the glenoid. More particularly, the present disclosure provides systems and methods for repairing both a glenoid cavity and a glenoid rim of the glenoid using a single implant.

Claims (32)

1. An implant configured to be disposed in a patient's glenoid bone, the implant comprising:

a load bearing surface including a circular region and a semi-circular rim region at least partially surrounding the circular region along a periphery of the circular region, wherein the load bearing surface is concave having two or more curvatures; and

a bone facing surface generally configured to correspond to an excision site in the patient's glenoid bone, so as the bone facing surface is configured to dispose entirely within the excision site;

wherein the bone facing surface comprises a first region generally opposite the circular region having a first shape configured to correspond to a first bone excision site, and a second region generally opposite the semi-circular rim region, the second region configured to extend from the first region and away from the load bearing surface, the second region at least partially surrounding the first region along a periphery of the first region, the second region comprising a plurality of hemispherical segments, each hemispherical segment configured to correspond to a second portion of the excision site.

2. The implant of claim 1 , wherein the semi-circular rim region partially surrounds the circular region from about 10 degrees to about 270 around the periphery of the circular region.

3. The implant of claim 1 , wherein the second region partially surrounds the first region from about 10 degrees to about 270 around the periphery of the first region.

4. The implant of claim 1 , wherein the first region has a generally hemispherical shape and substantially configured to correspond to a first portion of the excision site.

5. The implant of claim 4 , wherein the first region includes at least one of a protrusion, a lip or a rib configured to engage bone of the first portion of the excision site.

6. The implant of claim 4 , wherein the first region includes at least one of a threaded base, a keel, or a tail configured to engage bone of the first portion of the excision site.

7. A system for repairing a defect on at least a portion of an articular surface of a glenoid bone, said system comprising:

at least two guide pins, said at least two guide pins comprising a first guide pin and a second guide pin, said first guide pin and said second guide pin configured to be secured to said glenoid;

an excision apparatus to form an excision site on at least a portion of an articular surface of the glenoid bone, the excision apparatus comprising a guide body and an excision device; said guide body comprising a plurality of guide pin sleeves to contain said at least two guide pins, said plurality of guide pin sleeves comprising at least a first guide pin sleeve and a second guide pin sleeve; wherein, when said first guide pin is contained in said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin is contained in said second guide pin sleeve, said guide body is retained in a first excision position for said excision device and; said guide body further comprises a third guide pin sleeve; and wherein, when said first guide pin is contained in said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin is contained in said third guide pin sleeve, said guide body is retained in a second excision position for said excision device; said guide body is rotatable on at least one of said first guide pin and said second guide pin from said first excision position to said second excision position; and

an implant comprising a load bearing surface including a circular region and a semi-circular rim region at least partially surrounding the circular region along a periphery of the circular region, wherein the load bearing surface is concave having two or more curvatures; the implant also comprising a bone facing surface generally corresponding to the excision site, so as to dispose the bone facing surface entirely within the excision site; the bone facing surface having a first region generally opposite the circular region having a first shape corresponding to a first bone excision site, and a second region generally opposite the semi-circular rim region, the second region also extending from the first region and away from the load bearing surface, the second region also at least partially surrounding the first region along a periphery of the first region, the second region also comprising a plurality of hemispherical segments, each hemispherical segment configured to correspond to a second portion of the excision site.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein said guide body is slidable along said first guide pin and said second guide pin when said first guide pin is contained in said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin is contained in said second guide pin sleeve.

9. The system of claim 7 , wherein said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin sleeve are substantially parallel.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein said first guide pin sleeve has a diameter substantially equal to a diameter of said first guide pin and said second guide pin sleeve has a diameter substantially equal to a diameter of said second guide such that, when said first guide pin is contained in said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin is contained in said second guide pin sleeve, said first guide pin and said second guide pin are substantially parallel.

11. The system of claim 9 , wherein said excision device has an axis of rotation which is substantially parallel to said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin sleeve.

12. The system of claim 7 , wherein said first guide pin sleeve and said third guide pin sleeve are substantially parallel.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein said first guide pin sleeve has a diameter substantially equal to a diameter of said first guide pin and said third guide pin sleeve has a diameter substantially equal to a diameter of said second guide such that, when said first guide pin is contained in said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin is contained in said third guide pin sleeve, said first guide pin and said second guide pin are substantially parallel.

14. The system of claim 12 , wherein said excision device has an axis of rotation which is substantially parallel to said first guide pin sleeve and said third guide pin sleeve.

15. The system of claim 7 , wherein said guide body further comprises a fourth guide pin sleeve; and wherein, when said first guide pin is contained in said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin is contained in said fourth guide pin sleeve, said guide body is retained in a third excision position for said excision device.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein said first guide pin sleeve and said fourth guide pin sleeve are substantially parallel.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein said first guide pin sleeve has a diameter substantially equal to a diameter of said first guide pin and said fourth guide pin sleeve has a diameter substantially equal to a diameter of said second guide such that, when said first guide pin is contained in said first guide pin sleeve and said second guide pin is contained in said fourth guide pin sleeve, said first guide pin and said second guide pin are substantially parallel.

18. The system of claim 17 , wherein said excision device has an axis of rotation which is substantially parallel to said first guide pin sleeve and said fourth guide pin sleeve.

19. The system of claim 15 , wherein said guide body is rotatable on at least one of said first guide pin and said second guide pin from said second excision position to said third excision position.

20. The system of claim 7 , wherein said excision device comprises a rotating cutter.

21. The system of claim 7 , wherein said excision device is a reamer.

22. The system of claim 7 , wherein the semi-circular region partially surrounds the circular region from about 10 degrees to about 270 around the periphery of the circular region.

23. The system of claim 7 , wherein the wherein the second region partially surrounds the first region from about 10 degrees to about 270 around the periphery of the first region.

24. The system of claim 7 , wherein the first region has a generally hemispherical shape and substantially corresponding to a first portion of the excision site.

25. The system of claim 7 , wherein the first region includes at least one of a protrusion, a lip or a rib to engage bone of the first portion of the excision site.

26. The system of claim 7 , wherein the first region includes at least one of a threaded base, a keel, or a tail to engage bone of the first portion of the excision site.
