From Which Medical Device
The Contemporary Acetabular Cup from Stryker is a cemented, flanged, polyethylene component used for primary or revision hip arthroplasty. The cup has methylmethacrylate studs on the base which are removable but which are intended to remove the risk of bottoming out. The flange can be trimmed to match the requirements of the acetabulum.
In 2011, the cup had an ODEP 5A rating, and was the most frequently implanted socket for primary hip replacement in the National Joint Registry of England and Wales (34% of implantations, usually with the Exeter stem). In that report, some users appeared to be switching to the Exeter RimFit cup.
