This is an Austin Moore Hemi-Hip prosthesis
manufactured by Howmedica, Inc. in the 1970s. This
type of prosthesis was invented by J. Austin Talley
Moore (1899-1963), orthopedic surgeon at the Moore
Orthopedic Clinic at Colombia University in New York
City and first implanted in 1950. It was evaluated by
Dr. John Insall and Dr.Albert Burstein at the Hospital
for Special Surgery in New York City, but was never
implanted. Austin Moore Hip prosthetics are still being
implanted primarily in geriatric patients. [M-
