Revision Acetabular System
Features and Benefits
Stable
- Offers equal amount of press-fit across the acetabulum as compared to elliptical cups4
- Elliptical cups have been shown to have higher potential for intraoperative complications such as fracture.
- High coefficient of friction combined with geometry create a predictable friction fit in the acetabulum
- Result enables initial mechanical stability, which ultimately leads to biologic fixation.
Strong
- Electron Beam Melting (EBM) integrates a porous and solid substrate versus a porous coating sintered to a solid surface.
- Integrated material: High shear/tensile strength3
