An implant system for total shoulder arthroplasties, hemi shoulder arthroplasties, and "reverse" total shoulder arthroplasties including a humeral stem having an enlarged head portion with interfaces adapted to removably receive various modular interchangeable components, such as articulating liners, spacers, and adapter inserts. The humeral stem functions as a universal platform that may be used in either conventional or "reverse" total shoulder arthroplasties, as well as hemi shoulder arthroplasties, and may remain implanted in place during a revision in which the implant system is converted between the foregoing configurations, for example.
L'invention concerne un système d'implant destiné aux arthroplasties totales de l'épaule, aux arthroplasties partielles de l'épaule et aux arthroplasties totales "inverses" de l'épaule, et comprenant une tige humérale possédant une partie tête élargie pourvue d'interfaces conçues pour recevoir de manière amovible divers composants interchangeables modulaires, tels que des garnitures d'articulation, des espaceurs et des raccords d'adaptation. La tige humérale fonctionne comme une plateforme universelle pouvant être utilisée dans des arthroplasties totales classiques ou "inverses" de l'épaule, ainsi que dans des arthroplasties partielles de l'épaule, et peut rester implantée en place lors d'une révision pendant laquelle le système d'implant est converti entre les configurations susmentionnées, par exemple.
