An acetabular cage is a medical device used in orthopedic surgery, specifically in hip replacement procedures. The acetabulum is the socket-shaped part of the hip joint that connects to the femoral head (the ball-shaped part of the joint). In some cases, the acetabulum may be damaged or eroded due to conditions such as arthritis, fractures, or previous failed hip replacements.
The purpose of an acetabular cage is to provide stability and support to the acetabulum during the hip replacement surgery. It is typically used when the bone quality in the acetabulum is poor or compromised, making it difficult for the new artificial hip implant to securely attach to the bone.
