The Burch/Schneider Reinforcement Cage is intended to bridge the areas of acetabular bone loss in patients with acetabular bone deficiency. In addition, the Burch/Schneider Reinforcement Cage, like the predicate devices, is intended to provide support for an all polyethylene acetabular implant in a cemented application.

Diagnostic indications for use of this device include, but are not limited to, acetabular dysplasia, osteoporosis, protrusio acetabuli, cystic acetabular roof, reconstruction in cases of defects after fracture, acetabular loosening, tumors or revision surgery.

The general indications associated with the use of Burch/Schneider Reinforcement Cage in total hip arthroplasty include:

1. Advanced joint destruction resulting from degenerative, posttraumatic or rheumatoid arthritis,

2. Fracture or avascular necrosis of the femoral head,

3. Failed previous surgery, e.g. osteosynthesis, joint reconstruction, arthrodesis, hemi-arthroplasty and total hip replacement.

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