The present disclosure is directed to a device for redressing a tapered portion of an orthopaedic implant. The device comprises a grinding member adapted to matingly contact or engage at least a portion of the tapered portion; a housing adapted for removably receiving the grinding member therein, the housing having an opening at or towards a distal end to receive the tapered portion therethrough; and a connector at or towards a proximal end for operably connecting the housing to a drill member.

The present invention relates to a test object (100) for use in orthopaedic surgery, in particular for imaging a lumbar spine of a subject, the test object comprising a receiving volume (5) that accommodates: - a first vertebra element (10a) having properties similar to those of a first vertebra of a subject; - a second vertebra element (10b) having properties similar to those of a second vertebra of the subject, adjacent to the first vertebra of the subject; - at least one orthopaedic implant (20a, 20b, 21a, 21b, 25a, 25b) connecting the first vertebra element to the second vertebra element; and - a scattering medium (30) surrounding the first vertebra element, the second vertebra element and the orthopaedic implant, the scattering medium having scattering properties similar to those of a portion of a body of the subject located near the first vertebra and the second vertebra.

An orthopaedic implant includes: a porous ingrowth material body including a porous ingrowth material including a polymer and configured to be implanted within the spine of a human or a non-human animal, the material body comprising a top surface and a bottom surface and a through-hole extending through the material body from the top surface to the bottom surface, the material body having at least one pin opening that extends from the top surface toward the bottom surface; and at least one pin placed in the at least one pin opening.
