## Intended Use

This device is intended for cemented use only as part of a layered construct and is indicated for patients with conditions of, but not limited to, acetabular dysplasia, osteoporosis, protrusio acetabuli, cystic acetabular roof, reconstruction in cases of defects after fracture, acetabular loosening, tumors or revision surgery, advanced joint destruction resulting from degenerative, post-traumatic, or rheumatoid arthritis, and failed previous surgery, e.g., osteosynthesis, joint reconstruction, arthrodesis, hemi-arthroplasty, or total hip replacement.

## Device Story

Metallic, dome-shaped, flanged acetabular cage; designed to bridge acetabular bone loss/deficiencies. Features multiple screw holes for intraoperative peripheral stabilization of revision shell constructs. Available in five sizes, left/right versions, and short/long flange configurations to accommodate patient anatomy. Used by surgeons in revision hip procedures. Implanted to provide structural support and bridge bone defects; functions as part of a layered, cemented construct. Benefits patients by restoring acetabular integrity in complex revision cases.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Material: Commercially Pure (CP) Titanium. Design: Dome-shaped, flanged acetabular component with multiple screw holes. Configuration: Five sizes, left/right versions, short/long flanges. Energy source: None (mechanical implant). Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not specified.

## 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.
