Specific indications for compatible components that can be used with the Lateralized Taperloc® Microplasty™ femoral Components include: Constrained Liners (K030047) Constrained liners are intended for general use in skeletally mature individuals undergoing primary and/or revision surgery at high risk of hip dislocation due to history of prior dislocation, joint or bone loss, soft tissue laxity, neuromuscular disease, or intra-operative instability and for whom all other options to constrained acetabular components have been considered. ## Device Story Lateralized Taperloc® Microplasty™ Femoral Components are straight, collarless, flat, tapered titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) stems designed for uncemented hip arthroplasty. Stems feature proximal plasma spray porous coating to facilitate fixation. Device is implanted by orthopedic surgeons in a clinical/hospital setting to replace the femoral head and neck. Output is a structural prosthetic component that restores hip joint function and stability. Benefits include correction of deformity, treatment of fractures, and management of degenerative joint disease. Device is used in conjunction with compatible acetabular components, including constrained liners for patients at high risk of dislocation. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence supported by mechanical bench testing. ## Technological Characteristics Materials: Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) per ASTM F-136 or F-1472. Design: Straight, collarless, flat, tapered stem with proximal plasma spray porous coating. Sizes: 5.0mm to 25.0mm diameters. Uncemented fixation. ## Regulatory 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). ## Predicate Devices - Taper 2 TM Porous femoral Stem ([K050441](/device/K050441.md)) ## Reference Devices - Constrained Liners ([K030047](/device/K030047.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
