From Which Medical Device
The Exceed ABT (Advanced Bearing Technology) Acetabular System from Biomet is an uncemented acetabular system applicable to both primary and revision hip implantations. Bearing choices include C2A-Delta Ceramic, M2A Series (metal) and E1 Anti-oxidant Infused polyethylene, which includes a number of large diameter bearing choices.
The shell has removable dome plugs allowing access to screw fixation holes if desired.
The ABT Taperfit (with or without a 15 degree augment) has an internal morse taper for ceramic, metal backed E1 or the M2A metal liner. The ABT Ringloc-X is suitable for E1 liners.
The bone contact surface is a closed pore plamsa sprayed porous coating with additional HA coating if required.
In 2011, the device had an ODEP 3A rating, and accounted for 8% of implantations in the National Joint Registry of England and Wales.
