Intended Use

The Anatomica Humeral Stem/Head is intended for cemented use in treatment of the following: 1. Advanced wear and tear of the shoulder joint resulting from degenerative, posttraumatic or rheumatoid arthritis. 2. Omarthrosis. 3. Rheumatoid arthritis. 4. Revision of shoulder prosthesis. 5. Traumatology: the only cone to be used in traumatological indications is the traumatology cone.

Device Story

Anatomica Humeral Stem/Head is a cemented shoulder prosthesis for proximal humerus replacement. System comprises forged stainless steel (ISO 5832-9) humeral stem and cast CoCrMo alloy (ISO 5832-4) humeral heads. Stem features trumpet-shaped proximal aspect for metaphyseal fit, lateral fin for rotational stability, and suture/wire holes for tuberosity attachment. Slit-ball head mechanism allows variable angle fixation via impact screw and expansion cone; traumatology cone available for fracture cases. Heads available in multiple sizes/heights with eccentric female recess. Device implanted by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/OR settings. Provides joint articulation to restore function and reduce pain in arthritic or traumatized shoulders.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Static and dynamic mechanical testing performed to verify device survival under physiologic loading conditions. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Forged stainless steel alloy (ISO 5832-9) for stem; cast CoCrMo alloy (ISO 5832-4) for heads. Design: Cemented, semi-constrained prosthesis. Features: Slit-ball head fixation mechanism with expansion/traumatology cones for variable angle positioning. Stem sizes: 4. Head sizes: 40-52mm diameter. Sterilization: Not specified.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring shoulder joint replacement due to degenerative, posttraumatic, or rheumatoid arthritis, omarthrosis, or revision of shoulder prosthesis. Includes traumatology applications using specific traumatology cone.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A shoulder joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a shoulder 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 humeral resurfacing component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a glenoid resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).

The Anatomica Humeral Stem is a metallic humeral component manufactured from forged stainless steel alloy (ISO 5832-9). It is available in four sizes which are determined by the diameter of the stem. The proximal aspect of the stem is "trumpet shaped" to match the metaphysis of the humeral shaft. Rotational stability is ensured by a proximal fin on the lateral Two holes in the fin and one in the medial stem body allow for attachment of the aspect. tuberosities via sutures/wires. The stem features a slit-ball head fixed at an angle of 135°. An impact screw and expansion cone are inserted through a shaft in the lateral aspect of the stern and into the slit-ball head at the time of surgery. This forces the slit-ball feature to spread open allowing fixation of one of the humeral heads used with the system. The use of the slit ball has the advantage of allowing fixation of the head in a variety of angles. A traumatology cone identical to the expansion cone, except with positioning pegs for head placement, is also available. #### Humeral Heads The heads are manufactured from cast CoCrMo alloy (ISO 5832-4). They are available in 10 {1}------------------------------------------------ sizes with diameters ranging from 40-52mm (in 2mm increments). Sizes 48, 50 and 52mm are offered in two head heights. The spherical female recess for attachment to the slit-ball head of the stem is situated eccentrically to the radius of the humeral head. This recess also features two internal holes for defining position in fracture cases (used in conjunction with the traumatology cone). #### SPECIFIC DIAGNOSTIC INDICATIONS The Anatomica Humeral Stem/Head is intended for cemented use in treatment of the following: - 1. Advanced wear and tear of the shoulder joint resulting from degenerative, posttraumatic or rheumatoid arthritis. - 2. Omarthrosis. - 3. Rheumatoid arthritis. - Revision of shoulder prosthesis. 4. - 5. Traumatology: the only cone to be used in traumatological indications is the traumatology cone. #### SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE The Anatomica Humeral Prosthesis is similar to the Sulzer Orthopedics Select Shoulder Titanium Humeral Prosthesis, the Sulzer Orthopedics Select Shoulder CoCr Humeral Stem Prosthesis, the Orthomet/3M Modular Neer II Shoulder System, the Zimmer Fenlin Total Shoulder, the Smith & Nephew Richards Cofield Shoulder, the Kirschner/Biomet Atlas Shoulder, the Kirschner/Biomet Mod II-C Shoulder, the Biomet Bio-Modular Total Shoulder, and the Depuv Global Total Shoulder System. Static and Dynamic Testing indicated that the device would survive physiologic loading. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image is a black and white seal for the Department of Health & Human Services - USA.
