Intended Use
The Porous Titanium Acetabular Augments are indicated for cemented or non-cemented use in cases of: 1. Noninflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis. 2. Rheumatoid arthritis. 3. Correction of functional deformity. 4. Treatment of non-union, femoral neck fracture, and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement, unmanageable using other techniques. 5. Revision of previously failed total hip arthroplasty. The porous titanium augments are intended to provide the orthopedic surgeon with a prosthetic alternative to structural allograft in cases of segmental deficiencies. The porous titanium acetabular augment is affixed to the mating acetabular cup using bone cement. The assembled porous titanium augment/acetabular construct is intended for cemented or uncemented use. The porous titanium acetabular augments are intended for general use in skeletally mature individuals undergoing primary and/or secondary revision surgery.
Device Story
Porous Titanium Acetabular Augments serve as prosthetic alternatives to structural allograft for segmental deficiencies in hip arthroplasty. Constructed from porous titanium alloy, these augments feature screw holes for 6.5 mm bone screws to facilitate adjunct fixation to native bone. The augment is affixed to the mating acetabular cup using bone cement; the resulting construct is used in either cemented or uncemented hip procedures. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings, the device addresses bone loss, providing structural support to improve implant stability and patient outcomes in primary or revision hip surgeries.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on non-clinical laboratory testing.
Technological Characteristics
Constructed of porous titanium alloy conforming to ASTM F 1580-95. Features include screw holes for 6.5 mm bone screws. Available in outer diameters from 48 mm to 58 mm in 2 mm increments, with three subsizes (small, medium, large) per diameter. Mechanical fixation via bone cement to acetabular cup.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature individuals undergoing primary or secondary revision hip arthroplasty for noninflammatory degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis), rheumatoid arthritis, functional deformity, or treatment of non-union, femoral neck, or trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement unmanageable by other techniques.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hip joint metal/metal semi-constrained, with an uncemented acetabular component, prosthesis is a two-part 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 includes prostheses that consist of a femoral and an acetabular component, both made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum. The femoral component is intended to be fixed with bone cement. The acetabular component is intended for use without bone cement (§ 888.3027).
