Dialoc Hip Stem cementless - Press-fit femoral stem prosthesis

Intended purpose

The DiaLoc hip stems are femoral hip stem components for total hip or hemi-hip arthroplasty. The DiaLoc hip stem is intended for uncemented, press fit fixation. It is indicated in cases of: - severe joint destruction with significant impairment where other therapeutic measures are not more promising, - severe joint pain due to degenerative or rheumatoid arthritis, joint fractures or bone necrosis, - post-operative conditions after previous surgery with or without the use of implants, - arthrosis, - femoral neck fractures, - avascular necrosis, - hip dysplasia.

Functional description

Composed of TiAl6Nb7 alloy. A collarless, straight, monoblock, flat tapered wedge design. The stem has a rectangular cross sectional geometry to provide rotational stability and tapers from proximal to distal with a stem – neck angle (CCD angle) of 131° standard offset version & 127° lateralized version. The neck has a Morse type 12/14 taper to mate with a modular femoral head. A threaded hole for the insertion instrument attachment is on the superior lateral surface of the proximal stem body.
