Intended Use
The Kerboull Cross is intended to be used to reconstruct the acetabulum in primary and/or revision total hip arthroplasty. Specifically, this device is used to reinforce the medial wall of the acetabulum to achieve stable fixation of the acetabular component in the presence of a deficient or weakened medial wall caused by severe inflammatory disease, fracture of the medial wall, or failed total hip arthroplasty.
Device Description
The Kerboull Cross is a hemi-spherical, metal shell that incorporates several flanges and screw holes and is shaped to fit into the acetabulum. These devices are available in a range a outer diameters to fit varying anatomical requirements.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a purely mechanical implant for hip reconstruction and contains no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is used to reconstruct the acetabulum in total hip arthroplasty, specifically to reinforce a deficient or weakened medial wall, which directly addresses a pathological condition (deficient/weakened bone) and restores function (stable fixation of the acetabular component).

No
The device is described as a surgical implant used for reconstruction, not for identifying or diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "hemi-spherical, metal shell" with "flanges and screw holes," indicating it is a physical hardware implant, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Kerboull Cross is a physical, implantable device (a metal shell) used to reconstruct the acetabulum during hip surgery. It is used in vivo (within the living body) to provide structural support.

The information provided describes a surgical implant, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.

§ 888.3350 Hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
