Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patient is 21 to 75 years of age, inclusive.
  • Patient is skeletally mature.
  • Patient qualifies for primary unilateral or bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) based on physical exam and medical history including the following:
  • Avascular necrosis (AVN)
  • Osteoarthritis (OA)
  • Inflammatory arthritis (i.e. Rheumatoid arthritis)
  • Post-traumatic arthritis
  • Patient has no history of previous prosthetic replacement device (any type, including surface replacement arthroplasty, endoprosthesis, etc.) of the affected hip joint(s).
  • Patient has a Harris Hip Score \<70 in the affected hip
  • Patient is willing and able to provide written informed consent.
  • Patient is willing and able to cooperate in the required post-operative therapy.
  • Patient is willing and able to complete scheduled follow-up evaluations as described in the Informed Consent.

  • Anticipated to be non-compliant.
  • The patient has a neuromuscular disorder, vascular disorder or other conditions that could contribute to prosthesis instability, prosthesis fixation failure, or complications in postoperative care.
  • The patient has a vascular (large and small vessel disease) insufficiency.
  • The patient has a chronic renal impairment or failure.
  • The patient has had previous prosthetic hip replacement device (any type, including surface replacement arthroplasty, endoprosthesis, etc.) in the joint to be operated
  • The patient has a neurologic condition in the ipsolateral or contralateral limb which affects lower limb function.
  • The patient has a diagnosed systemic disease that could affect his/her safety or the study outcome.
  • The patient is known to be pregnant.
  • The patient is unwilling or unable to give informed consent, or to comply with the follow-up program.
  • The patient has received an investigational drug or device within the previous 6 months.
  • The patient has undergone a total hip replacement, endoprosthesis, or surface arthroplasty of the contralateral (opposite side) hip within the past 6 months regardless of whether the previous hip was enrolled in this clinical study.
  • The patient has an active or latent infection in or about the affected hip joint or an infection distant from the hip joint that may spread to the hip hematogenously.
  • The patient has had previous girdlestone procedure (resection arthroplasty) or surgical fusion of the hip to be operated.
  • The patient has insufficient bone stock to fix the component. Insufficient bone stock exists in the presence of metabolic bone disease (i.e. osteoporosis), cancer, and radiation. Note: Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) may be used to assess the presence of adequate bone stock.
  • The patient has known local bone tumors and/or cysts in the operative hip.
  • The patient has a known sensitivity or allergic reaction to one or more of the implanted materials.
  • The patient is Grade III obese with a Body Mass Index (BMI) \> 35.
