Medacta Shoulder System Humeral Diaphysis Cementless - Coated shoulder humeral stem prosthesis

Intended purpose

Device intended for use as a hemi or total shoulder replacement. It is a single-use device for the reconstruction of the gleno-humeral joint in case of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, avascular necrosis as well as complex fractures, post-traumatic malunion and revision of failed arthroplasty in patients with an intact or reparable rotator cuff shoulder joint.

Functional description

The device is manufactured from titianium. The shape of the humeral diaphysis devices was developed to be anatomical and provide a stable positioning in the canal, especially in the calcar region. Fixation is achieved without the use of cement; stability is fostered by a titanium plasma spray and hydroxyapatite coating in the metaphyseal region. The devices can be used in anatomic and reverse configurations using either the Anatomic Metaphysis or the Reverse Metaphysis.
