ABSTRACT:
A modular acetabular reinforcement system includes a substantially cup-shaped reinforcement body having a peripheral flange portion. One or more fixation wings, of various sizes and shapes, are selectively and separately attachable to the flange portion of the reinforcement body. The system is mountable within the acetabulum of a patient to reinforce the acetabulum and to serve as a platform for other prosthesis components such as an acetabular shell.
