## Intended Use

The Keystone® Hip System is intended for treatment of patients who are candidates for total hip arthroplasty because the natural femoral head and neck have been affected by osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis or femoral neck fracture, and revision arthroplasty.

## Device Story

Keystone® Hip System is a cementless, semi-constrained, porous-coated hip prosthesis. System includes proximal bodies, distal stems, calcar replacement bodies, and modular calcar build-ups (+15mm, +30mm). Components connect via Morse-type taper junction with secondary fixation screw. Device used in total hip arthroplasty or revision surgery to address medial calcar bone deficiency; allows surgeon to rest stem calcar platform on remaining medial bone. Implanted by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/OR settings. Provides structural support for femoral reconstruction; benefits patients by restoring joint function and stability in cases of arthritis, necrosis, or fracture.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: Wrought titanium-aluminum-vanadium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) per ASTM F136. Porous coating per ASTM F1854-98. Design: Cementless, semi-constrained, porous-coated uncemented prosthesis. Modular assembly via Morse-type taper and attachment screws. Dimensions: Calcar build-ups available in +15mm and +30mm heights.

## Regulatory 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.

## Summary of Safety and Effectiveness

Encore Orthopedics®, Inc. 9800 Metric Blvd Austin, TX 78758 512-832-9500

## FEB 1 1 2002

Trade Name: Keystone® Hip System Calcar Replacement Body and Build-up

Common Name: Cementless hip stem

Classification Name: Hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous coated uncemented prosthesis

Description: The Keystone® Hip System is available in a variety of proximal bodies and distal stem diameter and length configurations. The proximal body and stem are attached via a Morse type taper junction with an axially loading screw providing secondary attachment. The bodies, stems, and fixation screws were cleared on 510(k) K000521. All components are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6A1-4V) that conforms to ASTM F136 with a porous coating that conforms to ASTM 1854-98 applied to the proximal body.

The additional components that are the subject of this Special 510(k) submission are the calcar replacement bodies and calcar build-ups.

The calcar replacement bodies are to be used either with or without a calcar build-up. During revision surgery or treatment of intertrochanteric fractures, the medial calcar bone is often deficient. This implant allows the surgeon to rest the calcar platform of the stem on the remaining medial bone. The modular build-up is available in a +15 and +30mm height for each size stem. The build-up is attached to the stem using an attachment screw. The modular buildups are fabricated from wrought titanium-aluminum-vanadium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) conforming to ASTM F136.

The attachment screw is used to attach the calcar build-up to the calcar replacement bodies. The attachment screw is fabricated from wrought titanium-aluminum-vanadium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) conforming to ASTM F136.

Intended Use: The Keystone® Hip System is intended for treatment of patients who are candidates for total hip arthroplasty because the natural femoral head and neck have been affected by osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis or femoral neck fracture, and revision arthroplasty.

Comparable Features to Predicate Device(s): Features comparable to predicate devices include same materials, design and indications.
