The present invention is related generally to prosthetic orthopedic implants and a method of making a non-modular prosthetic device for a joint arthroplasty. The invention provides a solution for monoblock prosthetic devices and processes that use cross-linking or that do not accommodate using non-moldable materials for the bearing surface of the monoblock devices. The method comprises molding a polymer interlayer between a porous metal structure and a polymer insert, wherein the insert generally comprises conventional or cross-linked ultra high molecular weight polyethylene ("UHMWPE").

La présente invention porte de façon générale sur des prothèses orthopédiques et sur une méthode de fabrication d'un dispositif prothétique non modulaire destiné à l'arthroplastie d'une articulation. L'invention propose une solution visant les dispositifs prothétiques monoblocs et les procédés faisant appel à une réticulation ou avec lesquels on ne peut pas recourir à des matières non moulables pour constituer la surface d'appui des dispositifs monoblocs. La méthode comprend le moulage d'une couche intercalaire en polymère située entre une structure métallique poreuse et un élément d'insertion en polymère, dans laquelle l'élément d'insertion comprend généralement un polyéthylène de poids moléculaire ultra élevé classique ou réticulé.
