Abstract:
A shoulder implant system includes a humeral stem implant, a humeral neck implant component, a humeral head implant component, and a glenoid implant. The humeral stem implant has a fin coupled to an exterior surface thereof that is inwardly tapered at an angle relative to vertical. At least a portion of the fin forms a wedge that directly engages and compacts cancellous bone during installation of the humeral stem implant. The humeral neck implant component is configured to be coupled with the humeral stem implant. The humeral head implant component is configured to be coupled to the humeral stem implant via the humeral neck implant component. The glenoid implant has a plurality of peripheral pegs. Each of the peripheral pegs has a plurality of sets of resilient lobes.

Claim (Index 56):
A method of making a glenoid implant, the method comprising:\n providing a stock glenoid component including:\n (i) a body having a first side with a concave surface and a second opposing side with a convex surface, the convex surface having a peripheral area surrounding a central area; \n (ii) a central peg extending from the central area of the convex surface; and \n (iii) a peripheral peg extending from the peripheral area of the convex surface, the peripheral peg having a generally cylindrical portion; \n cutting, via at least one of one or more tools, the generally cylindrical portion of the peripheral peg, thereby creating a plurality of radially extending disks; and cutting, via at least one of the one or more tools, the created plurality of radially extending disks in one or more helical patterns with respect to a central axis of the peripheral peg, thereby modifying each of the plurality of radially extending disks to have three lobes that are spaced about a circumference of the peripheral peg.
