Indications for Use
The MAYO Hip is used in total hip arthroplasty, a surgical procedure restricted to patients with substantial pain or marked functional disabilities in which conservative treatment has not provided acceptable relief and who are not candidates for other less aggressive forms of surgery. This hip is indicated for noncemented use in skeletally mature individuals. Diagnostic indications include severe hip pain and disability due to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, fused hip, fracture of the pelvis, and diastrophic variant.
Device Story
MAYO Hip Prosthesis is a short-stemmed, press-fit modular femoral component for total hip arthroplasty. Device replaces hip joint by implanting into femur; femoral stem mates with femoral head via Morse-type taper; head articulates against UHMWPE acetabular liner. Designed for conservative bone preservation; features collarless, dual-tapered body with short distal stem for rotary fixation. Immediate fixation achieved via three-point metaphyseal contact; secondary fixation via biological ingrowth into proximal fiber metal pads. Used by orthopedic surgeons in hospital settings. Conservative design minimizes femoral neck resection, bone preparation, and stress shielding; eliminates intramedullary fixation to reduce thigh pain, blood loss, and foreign body exposure. Preserves bone stock for potential future revisions.
Clinical Evidence
Eight years of clinical research provided. Study demonstrates satisfactory clinical outcomes. Results show statistically significant reduction in surgical blood loss and post-operative pain compared to BIAS Hip prostheses. Non-clinical evidence includes Finite Element Analysis (FEA), fatigue testing, porous coating characterization, and galvanic corrosion assessment.
Technological Characteristics
Modular femoral component; materials: Tivanium alloy and commercially pure titanium fiber pads. Design: collarless, dual-tapered (double wedge) body, short distal stem. Fixation: uncemented, press-fit, proximal three-point metaphyseal fixation, biological ingrowth via fiber metal pads. Connection: Morse-type taper for femoral head attachment. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature individuals requiring total hip arthroplasty due to severe hip pain and disability from rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, fused hip, pelvic fracture, or diastrophic variant, where conservative treatment failed.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across the joint. This generic type of device has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.
