Materialise Glenius
Personalized glenoid implants
In a shoulder arthroplasty with a severe glenoid defect, the remaining bone stock is often insufficient to fixate standard baseplates, and the defect can be too large or oblique for a bone graft.
Don't compromise the outcome of complex shoulder cases. Enhance predictability with personalized Glenius implants.
Get it right first time
Trustworthy results
Rely on our precise solutions to ensure successful outcomes. Powerful 3D planning and optimized implant designs lead to a 96% survival rate.1
More than a revision implant
Most patients present Wallace type 2 and 3 defects in primary and revision cases. Leverage tailored solutions to address these complexities specifically.
Maximize bone preservation
Adapt the implant to the patient instead of the other way around.
Unmatched experience
Easily collaborate with clinical engineers using an intuitive online 3D planner and benefit from our extensive expertise in 3D planning and printing.
How Glenius makes personalization easy
Unique 3D analysis
Based on the segmented CT scan, our experienced clinical engineers implement statistic shape model technology to quantify the glenoid bone loss.
Expert clinical engineers
Our clinical engineers bring 30+ years of experience with personalization to the collaboration so you don't have to invest too much time or effort into the process. They design the Glenius implants to best restore the patient's specific anatomy and maximize bone preservation as much as possible.
Optimized long-term fixation and stability
Glenius implants use crossed screw trajectories to optimize fixation. The integrated augment mimics bone properties and is designed to improve secondary fixation through bone on growth.
Personalized instrumentation
Innovative 3D-printed guides optimize primary fixation by directing the required cross-fixated screws as indicated by the detailed and personalized preoperative plan.
Easy-to-use digital platform
SurgiCase is an all-in-one web-based collaboration platform where you can upload images, plan, and collaborate with clinical engineers. You can securely access the platform from any internet browser.
