Stryker’s Trident II Acetabular System Debuts in India

Stryker has launched the Trident II Acetabular System in India. The advanced hip replacement solution addresses critical clinical challenges in total hip arthroplasty (THA) to improve precision, stability, and surgeon confidence. 

Recognized as the most implanted acetabular shell in the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry for 20 consecutive years,¹ the Trident II system builds on the legacy that has defined Stryker’s Trident brand for more than two decades, paired with the latest additive-manufactured Tritanium In-Growth Technology or PureFix HA, company officials stated.

“Hip replacement surgeries are rising globally due to ageing populations and rising incidence of osteoarthritis and mobility-related disorders. With the launch of the Trident II Acetabular System, we reinforce our commitment to bringing innovation-led solutions to surgeons and their patients,” said Aman Rishi, vice president and general manager, India, at Stryker. “By combining advanced materials, data-backed design, and robotic-arm assisted capabilities, Trident II represents a significant step forward in hip replacement solutions.”

Trident II is compatible with Mako SmartRobotics and supports a wide range of patient anatomies and surgical approaches. The Innerchange Locking Mechanism provides surgeons with intraoperative flexibility, including the use of Modular Dual Mobility constructs to improve joint stability and reduce dislocation risk. The system also incorporates Stryker’s X3 highly crosslinked polyethylene, developed using a patented sequential crosslinking process that enhances wear resistance and oxidation stability, contributing to long-term implant performance.

Stryker offers products and services in MedSurg, Neurotechnology, and Orthopaedics that help improve patient and healthcare outcomes. Alongside its customers globally, Stryker impacts more than 150 million patients annually.
