Glenoid prosthesis with a hybrid design (combining both peg and keel
designs), and surgical methods for reconstitution of a shoulder joint.
The hybrid design combines both peg and keel components into one device.
The hybrid glenoid component of a shoulder prosthesis includes an oval
body having a concave lateral articulating surface and an opposing convex
medial surface. The medial surface is provided with a plurality of pegs
and a single inferior protrusion. The pegs are used to attain both a
superior location as well as a central location. The inferior protrusion
provides stability in the superior-to-inferior translation of the humeral
head, as well as rotational articulation of the same.
