The Glenoid Insert is a key component of the Glenoid Side within Shoulder Replacement / Shoulder Arthroplasty systems. It functions as a prosthetic component positioned in the glenoid region to create the opposing articulating surface for the Humeral Component within the artificial shoulder joint.
The Glenoid Insert works together with the compatible Humeral Head / Humeral Articulating Component to form the Shoulder Bearing Interface, making it an integral part of the Prosthetic Shoulder Construct used to reconstruct the articulation between the Proximal Humerus and the Glenoid.
According to the supplied product table, the component is listed under product code AMS 104.200.000 with a specified dimension of 40 mm. Selection of this component within the shoulder prosthesis system depends on Preoperative Planning, Glenoid Anatomy, Component Compatibility, Joint Geometry, and Intraoperative Assessment.
The product image indicates a Glenoid-Side Geometry designed for placement and fixation within the prepared glenoid region. However, the supplied data do not specify the manufacturing material, fixation method, or detailed Peg / Keel Geometry. These specifications should therefore be confirmed using the approved Technical Datasheet and IFU before being published as official product characteristics.
What Is a Glenoid Insert?
A Glenoid Insert is an Orthopedic Implant Component representing the glenoid side of an artificial shoulder joint.
Within a shoulder replacement system, the component functions in the following relationship:
Humeral Component ↔ Glenoid Insert
The articulating surface of the compatible Humeral Component interacts with the corresponding surface of the Glenoid Insert to form an Artificial Shoulder Articulation.
The component is positioned in the Glenoid region after appropriate bone preparation according to the approved Surgical Technique of the system.
Product Components and Design
