Prosthetic hip stems (20, 70, 90, 100, 110, 130, 150, 200, 210) and acetabular cups (160, 180, 190) for use in prosthetic hip joints. The hip stem may include a core (36) having a stem portion (22, 72, 112, 135) and a neck portion (24, 80, 104, 120), a polymer matrix layer (38) substantially covering the stem portion of the core, and a porous metal layer (40) substantially covering the polymer matrix layer. The polymer matrix layer connects the core and the porous metal layer and provides a stiffness for the hip stem which more closely mimics the stiffness of bone than do known hip stems. The hip stems and acetabular cups additionally include a number of improvements adapted for more optimized results with certain types of patient anatomy, such as the anatomy of female patients, for example.

La présente invention concerne des tiges de hanche prothétiques(20, 70, 90, 100, 110, 130, 150, 200, 210) et des cotyles prothétiques (160, 180, 190) destinés à être utilisés dans des articulations de hanche prothétiques. La tige de hanche peut inclure une âme (36) constituée d'une partie tige (22, 72, 112, 135) et d'une partie col (24, 80, 104, 120), une couche matricielle polymérique (38) recouvrant sensiblement la partie tige de l'âme, et une couche métallique poreuse (40) recouvrant sensiblement la couche matricielle polymérique. La couche matricielle polymérique connecte l'âme et la couche métallique poreuse et confère une rigidité à la tige de hanche qui simule de manière beaucoup plus proche la rigidité de l'os que ne le font les tiges de hanche connues. Les tiges de hanche et les cotyles prothétiques incluent de plus un certain nombre d'améliorations permettant d'obtenir de meilleurs résultats avec certains types d'anatomies de patients, tels que l'anatomie de sujets féminins, par exemple.
