Abstract
A method of implanting a medical device including forming a tunnel at least partially through a patient's bone, placing the medical device on the bone so that a stress-diffusion element (i.e., a stem) extending from the medical device at least partially extends into the tunnel, and securing the medical device to the bone. The medical device includes a hemispherical cup having a bone-abutment exterior surface, an interior surface defining a cavity, a circumferential rim extending between the exterior surface and the interior surface, and at least one aperture extending between the exterior surface and the interior surface. The stress-diffusion element is formed to extend from and be oriented with respect to the cup based on whether the surgical implant is to be used on a left side or right side of the patient for reconstruction of the segmental acetabular defect.
