4 Introduction The Global Cup System is a cementless, press-fit, primary acetabular cup that is to be used in conjunction with a compatible femoral head and femoral stem component. There are two primary cup options; a 3-hole and a multi-hole cup. The 3-hole acetabular cup includes threaded sector screw holes and a threaded dome hole for accurate insertion and placement of the implant into the acetabulum. The multi-hole cup has an array of 6-12 non-threaded screw holes and a threaded dome hole. The Global Cup System utilises a hemispherical outer profile to the equator and a taper profile between the equator and the top face. On the inside of the cup a female taper is designed to engage multiple liner options, while a circumferential locking groove and anti-rotation feature adds additional locking support for the polyethylene liner. The Global Cup System ranges in size from 44mm to 68mm OD increasing incrementally by 2mm, manufactured from Titanium alloy. The surface finish includes a Titanium coating and a composite coating of plasma sprayed Hydroxyapatite over the Titanium coating to increase osseointegration between the acetabulum and the implant cup.

5 Pre-operative Planning Suggested Templating Method A pre-operative assessment of the acetabulum is recommended to determine the appropriate size and position of the implant. The templates are provided at 120% and 100% magnification for compatibility with standard radiographs. The Global Cup templates are positioned at 45 degrees and allow measurement for any hip that is suitable for the Global Cup System primary range from 44-68mm. The outline of the cup templates represents the porous coated diameter of the Global Cup. A peripheral dot and horizontal cut-out are located at the edges of the equator for marking, along with the head centres of the largest available head sizes. To start, position the overlay over the A/P radiograph at approximately 45 degrees of abduction against the radiographic teardrop. It is recommended to use a radiographic marker or scale. Determine the hip s centre of rotation. Size the acetabular component using the appropriate templates. If medialising the acetabular cup the native centre of rotation may be slightly different from the centre of rotation for the templated interface porous cup, place a small mark on the radiograph at the centre of rotation of the selected porous cup. The objective is to determine the template that provides the best fit and bony coverage. The largest component that appears suitable is to be chosen. Note: The final component size is to be determined intra-operatively. Templating is for planning purposes only. Figure 2: Global Cup acetabular templating System Surgical Technique 3
6 Surgical Technique Surgical Exposure The approach to the hip is the surgeon s choice; it varies and is influenced to a degree by the pathology present. The Global Cup can be inserted with equal ease using a posterior, posterolateral, anterolateral, straight lateral or transtrochanteric approach. Acetabular Reaming Figure 3: 3: Attach reamer reamer to acetabular to acetabular reamer reamer quick quick connect connect handle. handle Figure 4: 4: Acetabular reaming. Note: The acetabular reamer and Global Cup are True Sizing. For a 52mm Cup ream to 51mm for a 1mm press-fit. The acetabular reamers and definitive cup implants are marked with the true size and measure 180 degrees. For a 52mm cup ream to 51mm for a 1mm press-fit. The acetabular reamers are available from 40mm to 68mm in 1mm increments. Start with a smaller size reamer and progress to the next largest size until exposing bleeding cancellous bone, reaming a continuous surface. Take care to centre the reamer and apply a constant pressure in the recommended final implant orientation of 45 degrees of abduction and 20 degrees of anteversion. 4 Global Cup System

Figure 7: Thread cup cup onto onto impactor. impactor Figure 8: 8: Orientate the the cup cup into into the the anatomical position. Secure the cup implant onto the cup impactor by threading the shaft of the impactor into the apical hole of the cup. Ensure that the impaction sleeve is flush with the internal radius of the cup. Take care when threading the cup onto the impactor as excessive force may cause damage to the thread. Orientate the cup in the acetabulum using the alignment guide and bony landmarks. Confirm the placement of the cup and impact the implant into position. Additional impaction may be required, confirm proper seating by sighting through the apical hole. The required impaction force is dictated by the quality of the bone. Take care when repositioning the cup, do not lever on the impactor or cup as this may cause damage to the internal diameter of the cup and threads. Figure 9: Cup insertion Acetabular Cup Screw Placement & Fixation The Global Cup 3-Hole is packaged with pre-installed screw-hole covers which can be removed when additional screw fixation is required. The Global Cup Multi-Hole does not utilize screw-hole covers. Figure 10: Removal of screw-hole covers from the Global Cup. Figure 10: Removal of screw-hole covers from the Global Cup To remove the screw-hole covers from the acetabular cup, attach the 3.5mm hex screwdriver shaft to the ratchet handle. Unscrew the appropriate screw-hole cover as needed. 6 Global Cup System
9 Safe Quadrant Figure 11: Recommended placement of the bone screw Figure 12: Acetabular screw-hole preparation To prepare the bone screw for insertion, drill a pilot hole using the drill guide, 3.2mm drill and flexible drill shaft. The 3.2mm diameter drill is available in a length of 50mm and 70mm. Ensure that the drill guide is fully inserted into the screw-hole. Approximately 15 degrees of range of motion is available with the drill guide and bone screws (Figure 14). Ensure that the screw lies within the safe quadrant, refer to Figure 11 (Wasielewski et al., 1990). Figure 13: Verify screw-hole depth Figure 14: Global Cup 6.5mm cancellous bone screw Verify the depth of the screw-hole using the depth gauge. Select the appropriate length Global Cup 6.5mm cancellous bone screw and while holding the bone screw with the screw forceps use the 3.5mm hex universal joint screwdriver shaft with ratchet handle to insert the bone screw into the acetabulum. Surgical Technique 7
10 During insertion evaluate the quality of the bone when tightening. After tightening verify that the screw head is below the inner diameter of the cup, incorrect placement can prevent the liner from seating properly in the acetabular cup. Figure 15: Bone screw insertion (left), verify proper seating after insertion (right) Acetabular Cup Trial Liner Evaluation Provisional acetabular liners are available to trial in the definitive cup implant. The trial liners are not to be used in conjunction with the trial cups as final seating of the cup implant may vary. The trial liners are available in neutral and lipped in the sizes listed in Table 2.

Insert the trial into the cup implant by hand. Thread the trial liner into the dome hole of the cup implant using a 3.5mm hex driver shaft and ratchet handle until the trial liner bottoms out on the internal cup radius. The liner should be flush with the top surface of the cup implant. Assess the cup implant stability, position and range of motion with the femoral components. Once the appropriate liner selection has been made, remove the trial liner. Note: Do not impact the trial liner as damage may occur.
