The subject devices are intended for single use only, and may be used with or without bone cement. The subject devices may be used with an Howmedica Osteonics Endo Head and Neck Extension for hemi-hip arthroplasty, a UHR Universal Head for bipolar hip replacement, or a Howmedica Osteonics C-Taper cobalt chromium head and Howmedica Osteonics acetabular component for conventional total hip arthroplasty.

Indications:

For use as a bipolar hip replacement

Femoral head/neck fractures or non-union,

Aseptic necrosis of the femoral head,

Osteo-, rheumatoid, and post-traumatic arthritis of the hip with minimal acetabular involvement or distortion,

Pathological conditions or age considerations which indicate a more conservative acetabular procedure and an avoidance of the use of bone cement in the acetabulum,

Salvage of failed total hip arthroplasty

Femoral Neck Fractures

For use as a total hip replacement

Painful, disabling joint disease resulting from: degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis or late stage avascular necrosis,

Revision of previous unsuccessful femoral head replacement, cup arthroplasty, or other procedure,

Clinical management problems where arthrodesis or alternative reconstructive techniques are less likely to achieve satisfactory results.

Clinical circumstances that require an altered femoral resection level due to proximal fracture, bone loss, or calcar lysis.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
