Outline Programme
Acetabular cup and bearing technology including Pinnacle^® & DeltaMotion^®.

The number of Total Hips Replacements has risen over the last 30 years and patient profiles and expectations have significantly changed. Bearing surfaces are a critical component of the replacement hip joint and significant effort has been spent trying to optimise bearing surfaces.

For the first time, this dedicated Acetabular Learning Centre will review the evolution of the acetabular technology; consider different bearing options, current designs and the importance of correct cup positioning.

Delegates will have the opportunity to engage with peers and faculty via Q&A sessions practical demonstrations and active debates with clinical case discussions around acetabular cup and bearing technology.
