Porous Hip System

Overview

Based on an advanced anatomic study, IMAGE^◊ Hip System offers the best proximal fit, with the surgical simplicity of a straight stem.

Features and Benefits

Proximal filling design stresses the femur to help prevent bone resorption.

Forged titanium alloy for greater flexibility and biocompatibility.

Circulotrapezoidal neck provides increased ROM and can lead to less dislocations.

Optimized neck taper and femoral head design allow for 11mm of neck length adjustment without a skirted head. Femoral heads with skirts decrease ROM and can increase dislocation.

Dual offsets provide a restoration of the patient’s biomechanics without affecting leg length.

1mm size increments on all stems allow for better implant bone match.

Roughcoat sintered bead porous coating allows for scratch fit and stresses the bone for bone in-growth.

Distal grooves and bullet tip design help reduce the incidence of thigh pain.
