## Indications for use
The PROCOTYL-E Acetabular System is indicated for use in total hip arthroplasty for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved hip function in skeletally mature patients with the following conditions: 1. non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, ankylosis, protrusio acetabuli, and painful hip dysplasia; 2. inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as rheumatoid arthritis; 3. correction of functional deformity; 4. revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed; and, 5. treatment of fractures that are unmanageable using other techniques. The PROCOTYL-E Acetabular System consists of single use components that are intended to accommodate for bone loss.
