The Biomet G7 Acetabular System is a modular acetabular system, offering two types of acetabular shells. The shells are available in either a solid shell design, with an apical plug, or a limited hole with an apical plug and optional screw holes. Components are available in numerous designs and sizes intended for both primary and/or revision applications.
The Exceed ABT Acetabular System has been designed for cementless fixation and consists of an acetabular shell and an acetabular insert. The acetabular insert/bearing includes a tapered outer geometry that matches the inner geometry of the acetabular shell and an inner hemispherical geometry to suit the varying modular head diameters. Inserts/bearings are inserted into the acetabular shell intra-operatively and are available in varying sizes to match the acetabular shell diameters. The insert/bearings are available in Biolox Delta ceramic (CeramTec AG).
