Embodiment Construction
[0036] The present invention relates to a dual mobility acetabular prosthetic component and mating femoral head prosthetic component which together provide a hip prosthesis with ceramic-to-ceramic and ceramic-to-carbon fiber reinforced polymer articulation.
[0037] refer to figure 1 and 2 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the acetabular prosthesis assembly 2 includes a shell 4 and a liner 6 . The shell 4 is substantially hemispherical and formed from a carbon fiber reinforced polymer material. According to the embodiment of the invention described below, the housing 4 is formed from carbon fiber reinforced polyether ether ketone (CFR-PEEK), however, it will be appreciated that other fiber reinforced polymer materials are contemplated. Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer materials, such as CFR-PEEK, provide low-wear bearing surfaces, which also offer an alternative to metal bearing surfaces, considering the adverse effects already documented in the literatur...
