## Intended Use

The METS® Modular Total Femur is intended for the replacement of the total femoral bone.

## Device Story

METS® Modular Total Femur is a single-use, modular orthopedic prosthesis for total femoral bone replacement. System comprises titanium trochanter section and shaft, femoral components (axle, bushes, circlip), bumper, and SMILES knee (rotating or fixed configuration). Trochanter trunnion interfaces with 28mm/32mm Cobalt Chrome femoral heads. Optional trochanters allow hard tissue attachment via plates, screws, or Ti/CoCr wire. Device is implanted by surgeons in clinical settings to restore joint function following tumor resection, trauma, or failed arthroplasty. Cemented fixation is required. Clinical benefit includes restoration of skeletal structure and joint mobility in patients with severe bone deficiency or disease.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical trials were conducted. Clinical performance conclusions were based on a review of published literature and post-market surveillance data for similar modular femoral systems.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: Titanium (Ti), Cobalt-Chromium-Molybdenum (CoCrMo), and Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE). Modular design with taper connections. Cemented fixation. Performance testing conducted per ASTM F1800-07 (knee fatigue/wear).

## Regulatory Identification

A hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented 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 includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).

Device Description: The single use METS® Modular Total Femur is a standard
modular system that is intended for the replacement of diseased or
deficient bone in the femur. The system is intended for cemented
use only and comprises titanium (Ti) components including a
trochanter section, shaft. The trochanter trunnion is made to
interchange with Stanmore Implants Worldwide Limited's, 28mm
and 32mm Ø Cobalt Chrome femoral heads. The METS®
Modular Total Femur is offered with an optional set of trochanters
which are only to be used for hard tissue attachment using a plate
and two screws, or Ti or cobalt chromium (CoCr) wire.
A range of shafts, femoral component (including axle, bushes and
circlip), bumper and the SMILES knee (available in 3 types of
arrangements and in a rotating or fixed configuration).

Dear Ms. McDonald:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical

device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please go to http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/CDRH/CDRHOffices/ucm115809.htm for the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to
