Osteonics® Crossfire™ Polyethylene Acetabular Components are single use components, intended for use in conjunction with an associated Osteonics® metal acetabular shell, femoral bearing, and femoral hip stem, as part of a cemented or cementless total hip arthroplasty. Indications for use, in keeping with those of other commercially available Class II total hip devices, are as follows: Painful, disabling joint disease of the hip 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. Where bone stock is of poor quality or inadequate for other reconstructive techniques as indicated by deficiencies of the acetabulum.
