| 摘要 |
A glenoid component (2) of a shoulder joint prosthesis for fixation to the glenoid region of a scapula, comprises a body part (16) of the prosthesis which presents a surface for articulation with the corresponding articulating surface of a humeral component, and a frame part (4). The frame part has a lateral surface (20) on which the body part can be mounted, and a medial surface (22) generally opposite the lateral surface. First and second bores (24,26) extend between the lateral and medial surfaces for receiving screws (16,18) so as to fasten the frame part to the scapula. The bores are configured so that their axes (28,30) converge, so that the distance measured between the axes decreases with increasing distance away from the medial surface of the frame towards the scapula.
A method of planning a shoulder joint replacement surgical procedure is disclosed. |
