Jose Rodriguez, MD
Lenox Hill Hospital

A 77-year-old female with severe osteoporosis and a contraindication for cement received Exactech’s Alteon Monobloc Revision Femoral Stem through a tableless anterior approach. In this complex primary case a 54mm Novation CrownCup, 25mm Alteon Bone Screw, 36mm neutral Connexion GXL liner, and +0mm BIOLOXdelta head accompanied the 20x195mm Monobloc Revision Femoral Stem implant. Intraoperatively, the final implant achieved axial stability at a level 1mm proud of the location predicted by the stem trial. •
