The Short Modular Femoral System (SMF) is a total primary hip system consisting of proximally porous coated titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) tapered femoral hip stems with optimized and easy to use instrumentation. It offers the surgeon an improved bone conserving modular neck implant that is compatible with high demand femoral head bearing options from Smith & Nephew.

Features Include:

• Strength
• Stability
• Versatility

The SMF hip stem is shorter than conventional hip stems, which allows the stem to conserve more of the patient’s femur than other prostheses. The SMF hip stem allows for a slightly higher neck resection. The proximal porous coating of the stem consists of STIKTITE™ Porous Coating, a commercially pure Titanium coating, and is designed to have a press-fit relative to the broach of approximately 1/4mm. The stems are proportionally sized and shaped in sizes -1 through 6, with optional larger sizes 7 through 9.  The stems are compatible with four modular neck options that create seven distinct neck positions to address patient anatomy.  The SMF system provides modular necks which are manufactured from Cobalt Chrome alloy (CoCr) and are available in standard and high offset plus left and right anteverted options. With various head options from Smith & Nephew, the modular necks allow adjustment of the head center to as many as 42 distinct head center locations.
