This study is monocentric, retrospective and prospective, non-controlled, consecutive series Post-Market Clinical Follow-up Study to Provide Safety, Performance and Clinical Benefits Data of the Largest Zimmer® Maxera™ Cup (Implants and Instrumentation)
The Zimmer Maxera Cup is a monoblock construct that consists of a preassembled shell and liner. The ceramic liner articulates with a ceramic femoral head for a ceramic-on-ceramic large diameter head articulation. The BIOLOX® delta ceramic liner (insert) is preassembled to lock into the tapered shell's cavity and articulate with BIOLOX OPTION ceramic femoral heads, sizes 32, 36, 40, 44, and 48 mm and standard BIOLOX delta ceramic femoral head sizes 32, 36, and 40 mm. This is a single center post-market clinical evaluation. A consecutive series of 32 patients treated with a Maxera Cup (outer diameter 64 mm or 66 mm) between Nov 2011 and Feb 2018 will be identified and invited to participate in the study.

The THA surgical procedure involves replacing the head of the femur and acetabulum or socket with an artificial prosthesis. This system is composed of a femoral stem that is inserted into the femoral canal, a ball that attaches to the femoral stem, and an acetabular component or shell that replaces the acetabulum. In this study, the acetabular component is the Zimmer Maxera Cup, which is a monoblock construct consisting of a pre-assembled shell and liner. The ceramic liner articulates with a ceramic femoral head for a ceramic-on-ceramic large diameter head articulation. The Maxera Cup is intended for single use only and is designed for reconstruction of the hip joint for conditions described in the inclusion and exclusion section of this protocol.

Implant survival based on removal or intended removal of the device and determined using the Kaplan-Meier method
Time frame: 10 years post-surgery
Pain and functional performance based on the Harris Hip Score
The score is given from 0 to 100 with Excellent: 90 - 100, Good: 80 - 89, Fair: 70 - 79, and Poor: \< 70
Time frame: 10 years post-surgery
Subject quality-of-life determined by the EQ-5D (EuroQoI) score
The lowest score (0) corresponds to "the worst health the patient can imagine", and the highest rate (100) corresponds to "the best health he can imagine".
Time frame: 10 years post-surgery
X-rays evaluated for radiolucencies, osteolysis, hypertrophy, subsidence, heterotopic ossification, etc
Time frame: 10 years post-surgery
Safety based on eventual complications occurred including dislocations and revisions/removals
Time frame: 10 years post-surgery
