The DELTA XTEND Prosthesis is indicated for use in treatment of a grossly deficient rotator cuff joint with:

• severe arthropathy and/or;

• a previous failed joint replacement and/or;

• Fracture-dislocations of the proximal humerus where the articular surface is severely communited, separated from its

blood supply or where the surgeon’s experience indicates that alternative methods of treatment are unsatisfactory

The patient’s joint must be anatomically and structurally suited to receive the selected implant(s), and a functional deltoid

muscle is necessary to use the device.

DELTA XTEND hemi-shoulder replacement is also indicated for hemi-arthroplasty if the glenoid is fractured

intraoperatively or for the revision of a previously failed DELTA XTEND Reverse Shoulder. Porous-coated epiphysis are

indicated for use in total shoulder replacement only.

The metaglene component is HA coated and is intended for cementless use with the addition of screws for fixation. The

modular humeral stem is HA coated and is intended for cementless use. The HA coated humeral epiphysis is intended for

cementless use. The porous-coated epiphysis is intended for cemented or cementless use.

All other metallic components are intended for cemented use only.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
