AVATAR Cemented Cup
CEMENTED HIP SYSTEM
Made up from UHMWPE material and SS316L ring.
The ripped structure on the outer surface provides an interlocking implant with Bone Cement. It helps to increase Cement Compression and Improve tipping in the acetabulum.
Longitudinal and horizontal grooves help in the uniform distribution of Bone cement and ensure rotational stability.
- A 15° hood provides a higher range of motion while maintaining the stability of the joints.
- SS316L Ring helps in visualizing Cup in X-rays.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are cemented implants?
Cemented implants are orthopaedic components fixed to bone using bone cement, typically polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). In the AVATAR Cemented Cup, bone cement is used to secure the UHMWPE cup within the acetabulum. The cup’s outer structure is designed to interlock with the cement and support fixation.
What are the key features of the AVATAR Cemented Cup?
The AVATAR Cemented Cup is made from UHMWPE with an SS316L ring. Its outer surface has a ribbed structure designed for interlocking with bone cement, while longitudinal and horizontal grooves support uniform cement distribution and rotational stability. A 15° hood is designed to provide a higher range of motion while maintaining joint stability, and the SS316L ring facilitates X-ray visualization.
How does the AVATAR Cemented Cup improve implant stability?
The AVATAR Cemented Cup is designed to enhance cemented fixation through its ribbed outer structure, which provides interlocking with bone cement and helps increase cement compression. Its longitudinal and horizontal grooves facilitate uniform cement distribution and contribute to rotational stability within the acetabulum.
Can hip replacement help reduce chronic hip pain?
Yes. Hip replacement can significantly reduce pain caused by advanced hip arthritis and improve mobility and function when non-surgical treatments no longer provide adequate relief. During total hip replacement, damaged joint surfaces are replaced with artificial components to restore joint function. Suitability for surgery depends on the patient’s condition and should be assessed by an orthopaedic surgeon.
What are the symptoms of severe hip arthritis?
Severe hip arthritis commonly causes persistent hip or groin pain, stiffness, reduced range of motion, difficulty walking, and pain that may worsen with activity or after periods of inactivity. As the condition progresses, symptoms can interfere with everyday activities and mobility. An orthopaedic evaluation can help determine the severity and appropriate treatment.
