Bipolar Hip Replacement System
The basic concept of Modular Bipolar is based in double ball system. The external component is generally immobile in the natural acetabulum area. It’s the Multi-dimensional rotational movement between the femoral head and outer shell facilitates the articulation inside the acetabulum area.
overview
- A large array of component allows precise patient matching for optimal patient fit
- Outer diameters from 36 to 56mm allow the surgeon to meet the unique challenges posed in revision and extended situation.
- The bipolar cup offers use with 22, 28mm femoral heads.
- Outer Shell Material: High Nitrogen Stainless Steel (HNS)
- Sourced from Schwerte, Germany
- Linear and Locking Ring: UHMWPE
- Sourced from Orthoplastics Ltd, UK
Feature & Benefit
- Enhanced ROM resists the impingement to the UHMWPE locking ring.
- Multi polarity is achieved via multiple offsets within the system as cup sizes increase, the amount of eccentricity increases.
- Provides eccentricity that is proportional to the patient's anatomy.
- Simple Locking Ring Mechanism and Enhanced Stability.
- Superior pull-out strength resists the dislocation of the femoral head.
