Hip System
With over 85,000 stems successfully implanted since 1997, SYNERGY◊ Hip System has been one of the fastest growing hips in orthopaedics. Why? Because SYNERGY◊ is a complete system, with state-of-the-art options, that utilizes simple, efficient instrumentation.
In 1997, the SYNERGY◊ Total Hip System was introduced. The goal of this tapered hip system was to give orthopedic surgeons choices, but not confusion; a system that allows the surgeon to select from a family of stems, yet have the simplicity of only one set of instruments.
The following femoral stems are all part of the SYNERGY◊ Tapered Hip System and can be implanted with one simple set of surgical instruments.
| SYNERGY◊ Porous features a RoughCoat porous coating that promotes bone ingrowth and three-dimensional interlocking between the implant and the bone. |
