摘要:
A prosthetic device, such as an acetabular cup, includes a shell, a liner and a bearing. The bearing may be coupled to the liner so as to form a bearing-liner subassembly. The shell is provided with a female taper complimentary to a male taper on the liner. The liner-bearing subassembly may be secured to the shell by engaging the complimentary tapers.

An improved acetabular cup prosthesis (10) has a cup body with inner convex and outer concave surfaces (12 and 15). The cup body has an apex (21) and a base (14) that defines a plane. The cup body outer convex surface (12) has a curved annular portion (13) between the base (14) and the transition. In one embodiment, the outer convex surface (12) is a curved annular surface extending in between the rim and a distance about two fifths to three fifths of the distance between the rim and the apex. In another embodiment, a plurality of cup bodies are provided in a range of sizes between about 40 mm and 80 mm. Each cup body has a companion rotary reamer that is correspondingly shaped. The companion cup body is oversized between 1mm and 3mm so that a generally constant change in volume is provided for all cup sizes between 40 mm and 80 mm.

The invention relates to a modular hip implant comprising a base (1) that is to be attached to a hipbone (2), and a socket (4) for accommodating a hip joint prosthesis. The base (1) is provided with fastening means for mounting the base (1) on the hipbone (2) as well as a concave receiving area (3) for the socket (4). The socket (4) has a convex outer form which is complementary to the receiving area (3) such that the radii of curvature determining the concave receiving area (3) and the convex outer form essentially correspond to each other. The socket (4) can be fastened within the base (1). The hip implant is characterized in that the base (1) and/or the socket (4) encompass/es means for adjusting the position of the socket (4) relative to the base (1). The invention allows the inclination and anteversion to be adjusted by arranging the socket (4) inside the base (1).

摘要:
A prosthetic component assembly (10), such as an acetabular cup, includes a shell (12) and a bearing insert or liner (14). The shell (12) and bearing insert are configured to provide an increased congruency between the shell (12) and the bearing insert thereby decreasing the amount of motion (i.e. micro-motion) between the shell (12) and the bearing insert. In one form, increased congruency is achieved through first (30) and second (44) (inner and outer) tapers that are respectively provided on the shell (12) and the bearing insert. The outer taper (44) has first and second outer taper portions. A relationship between the first outer taper portion and the inner taper (30) provides an essentially congruent fit, while a relationship between the second taper portion and the inner taper (30) provides an interference fit. The relationships between the inner (30) and outer (44) tapers allow the bearing insert to achieve load sharing at a dome of the outer shell (12) as well as at a rim of the shell (12). The relationships between the tapers (30,44) also allow relative motion between the shell (12) and the bearing insert to be controlled. Particularly, the relationships between the tapers (30,44) allow relative motion, or micro-motion, to be uniformly controlled below previous levels reported in the range of 10 micrometers or less between the bearing insert and the shell (12).

The present invention pertains to an artificial acetabular cup intended for use in a hip socket prosthesis, comprising a stretched cotyloid joint and an insert (11) presenting a hemispheral recess (12) for receiving a joint ball. From the front, the cotyloid joint (10) has an asymmetric contour relative to the longitudinal axle (15).

An acetabular cup assembly allows pre-operative or interoperative selection and securement of a bearing member within a shell member of the acetabular cup assembly, the bearing member being selected from a plurality of bearing members having different characteristics, including bearing characteristics, securement characteristics, position characteristics and orientation characteristics, so as to enable a surgeon to select those characteristics most appropriate to a particular patient, as determined by a pre-operative assessment or by an evaluation of conditions encountered at an implant site during the implant procedure, and to incorporate the desired characteristics into the acetabular cup assembly with ease and economy.

◆ à être inséré dans la cupule de soutien (1); ◆ et à recevoir la tête de l'élément fémoral de ladite prothèse.
La cupule de soutien (1) présente un profil externe constitué d'une base conique A se prolongeant par un secteur B en forme de calotte sphérique aplatie au niveau du pôle (3). La base conique A comporte des cannelures (2) orientées selon des portions de méridien, lesdites cannelures étant définies par des dents (4), orientées également selon des portions de méridiens.
摘要:
An acetabular prosthesis (10) has a shell component (12) that is implantable within bone and a liner component (14) that is matable to the shell (12) by a locking member (13) disposed with the shell component (12). The shell (12) has a generally convex bone engaging outer surface (16) and a generally concave inner surface (18). A groove (24) is formed in the inner surface (18) of the shell (12) and extends about at least a portion of the inner circumference of the shell (12). The liner (14) has a inner concave surface (54) and an outer, convex surface (52) with a shape complementary to and matable within the inner surface (18) of the shell (12). One or more deformable tabs (100) are formed on the locking member (13), adapted for securing the liner (14) within the shell (12). The liner (14) may be joined to the shell (12) by press fitting the two components together such that the locking members (100) engages one or more positive surface ridges (56) on the liner (14).
