Abstract
A system for use during an orthopaedic surgical procedure includes a femoral broach, an acetabular cup component, and an acetabular alignment guide. The femoral broach includes a mounting post positioned at a superior end of an elongated body. The cup component includes a distal rim and a curved surface extending inwardly from the rim to define a cavity. The alignment guide includes a distal end configured to be coupled to the mounting post and a proximal end configured to be coupled to the distal rim. When coupled to the femoral broach, the guide instrument is sized to orient the acetabular cup component relative to the femoral broach. The acetabular cup component may be a prosthetic cup component or a trial instrument corresponding to the prosthetic cup component.
