Multi-hooded enarthrodial joint implant has a hard substance articulating cup including a hard substance head-receiving cup having an articular surface upon which a head of a joint can articulate, and which, in general, has a margin generally about a hemisphere more or less and at least two hoods that are marginally extended continuations of superior one-half or so of cup containment of a sufficient magnitude to reduce an overall dimension of socket outlet to less than a hemisphere, which can embrace and contain the head. The head is made of a hard substance and has a truncated generally circular cross section, a truncated surface with a feature for attachment of the stem, and an opposing articular surface for articulation against the articular surface of the ceramic head-receiving cup. As an ensemble, the cup is combined with the head, typically with a stem, for a total joint implant. The hard substance may be, for example, a composite substance, a metal or a metal alloy. Either the cup or the head, but not both, may be ceramic when employed in an ensemble.

The application discloses an artificial acetabular cup and a manufacturing method thereof. The artificial acetabular cup has an annular base and a dome extending from the annular base. At least a part of the inner layer of the dome is a solid layer, at least a part of the outer layer of the dome is a porous structure layer, and the thickness of the inner layer is less than that of the porous structure layer. The artificial acetabular cup of the present application has lower production cost and better performance.

An acetabular implant can include a predetermined force deflection curve as described herein. The implant can provide individual layers to achieve the predetermined force deflection curve. The acetabular implant can be manufactured using additive manufacturing techniques to achieve the required structures that provide the predetermined force deflection curve.

An acetabular prosthesis for use in a hip arthroplasty surgical procedure includes an acetabular cup cage assembly including an outer cup cage and an inner cup cage. The outer cup cage includes a hemispherical cup and a mounting flange. Similarly, the inner cup cage also includes a hemispherical cup and a corresponding mounting flange. The hemispherical cup of the inner cup cage is sized to be received into the hemispherical cup of the outer cup cage, and the two cup cages are rotatable relative to each other to position the mounting flanges into a desired position on a hip bone of a patient.

An implant trial is configured for placement onto a joint of a bone. The implant trial includes a central portion sized for receipt in a joint. The implant trial also includes a peripheral portion extending from the central portion. The peripheral portion includes a first region and a second region separate from the first region. When the central portion is received in the joint, the peripheral portion is configured to be received over a bone surface adjacent to the joint such that at least part of a surface of the first region is flush with a prepared bone surface and at least part of a surface of the second region faces a void in the bone. The second region has a lattice structure defined by a plurality of openings sized to allow bone graft to be received therethrough.
