The DePuy C-Stem System is indicated for cemented use as the femoral component in total hip arthroplasty.

Total hip arthroplasty is intended to provide increased patient mobility and reduce pain by replacing the damaged hip joint articulation in patients where there is evidence of sufficient sound bone to seat and support the components. Total hip replacement is indicated in the following conditions:

1. A severely painful and/or disabled joint from osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or congenital hip dysplasia.

2. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head.

3. Acute traumatic fracture of the femoral head or neck.

4. Failed previous hip surgery including joint reconstruction, internal fixation, arthrodesis, hemiarthroplasty, surface replacement arthroplasty, or total hip replacement.

5. Certain cases of ankylosis.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
