The PLUS EPF Acetabular Cup is intended for all types of arthrosis. such as advanced destruction of the hip joint due to degenerative, post-traumatic or rheumatoid arthritis, fracture or avascular necrosis of the femoral head, sequelae of previous operations, such as internal fixation, joint reconstruction, arthrodesis, hemiarthroplasty or total hip replacement. The same considerations apply to acetabular revisions. In normal cases, however, the surgeon will use an acetabular implant one size larger and in exceptional cases two sizes larger.

The PLUS EPF Cup is a cementless acetabular cup, which was designed with a triple-radius profile. The advantages are 1) minimal bone resection, 2) press-fit with physiological load transfer through the peripheral zone of the acetabulum, thus ensuring good primary stability without the need for screw fixation and 3) optimal osseous integration due to good primary stability.
