Intended Use
Indicated for use in total hip arthroplasty for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved hip function in skeletally mature patients with the following conditions: 1) Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, ankylosis, protrusio acetabuli, and painful hip dysplasia; 2) Inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as rheumatoid arthritis: 3) Correction of functional deformity; 4) Revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed; and, 5) Treatment of fractures that are unmanageable using other techniques.
Device Story
STEM Hip Replacement System is a modular, uncemented prosthesis for total hip arthroplasty. Device consists of a Zweymüller-style rectangular distal stem/body with a heavy grit-blast finish and a modular neck. Available in nine stem sizes and twelve modular neck configurations (varying lengths and angles: neutral, anteversion, varus/valgus). Intended for use with associated ceramic or metal femoral heads. Implanted by orthopedic surgeons in a clinical/hospital setting to replace damaged hip joints, relieve pain, and restore function. Benefits include improved mobility and pain reduction for patients with degenerative joint disease or fractures.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is supported by materials data and bench testing results.
Technological Characteristics
Modular hip prosthesis; rectangular distal stem/body with heavy grit-blast surface finish; modular neck system with multiple anteversion/varus/valgus options. Materials and specific standards are not detailed in the provided text. Single-use components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients requiring total hip arthroplasty due to non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, ankylosis, protrusio acetabuli, painful hip dysplasia), inflammatory degenerative joint disease (rheumatoid arthritis), functional deformity, failed prior treatments/devices, or unmanageable fractures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across the joint. This generic type of device has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.

### DEVICE INFORMATION
### A. INTENDED USE
Indicated for use in total hip arthroplasty for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved hip function in skeletally mature patients with the following conditions:
- 1) Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, ankylosis, protrusio acetabuli, and painful hip dysplasia;
- 2) Inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as rheumatoid arthritis:
- 3) Correction of functional deformity;
- 4) Revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed; and,
- 5) Treatment of fractures that are unmanageable using other techniques."
{1}------------------------------------------------
The STEM Hip Replacement System are single use components, intended for use in conjunction with associated ceramic or metal femoral heads as part of an uncemented total hip arthroplasty.
## B. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The STEM is a modular prosthesis comprising two principal parts:
- Zweymüller style rectangular distal stem and body .
- . Modular neck
The STEM is available in nine sizes. All distal stems and bodies are rectangular in profile with a heavy grit blast surface finish. The STEM has a specific oblong housing/taper for the insertion of the twelve modular necks, which are available in six versions and two lengths: Neutral, antiversion 8° or 15°, varus/ valgus 8°, or combination of anteverted/ retroverted - varus/ valgus (in both short and long lengths).
### C. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE INFORMATION
The intended use, material, type of interface, and design features of the STEM Hip Replacement System are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices previously cleared for market. The safety and effectiveness of the STEM Hip Replacement System are adequately supported by the substantial equivalence information, materials data, and testing results provided within the Premarket Notification.

Dear Mr. Brown:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
