## Indications for use
The Empire Acetabular Augments are indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals undergoing primary or revision surgery for hip replacement and whose orthopedic surgeon desires a prosthetic alternative to structural allograft in cases of segmental acetabular deficiencies. The Empire Acetabular Augment is affixed to the mating acetabular shell using PMMA bone cement. Therefore, acetabular shells with HA coating must not be used with Empire Acetabular Augments. The assembled construct is intended for press-fit fixation. The construct may also be used with bone cement at the discretion of the surgeon.
