Intended purpose
The EcoFit hip stems are femoral hip stem components for total hip or hemi-hip arthroplasty. 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 cpTi + hydroxyapatite (HA) coated TiAl6Nb7 alloy. Collarless, straight, monoblock, flat tapered wedge design. 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 138°in both standard offset and lateralized. Neck has a Morse type 12/14 taper to mate with a modular femoral head. A threaded hole for the insertion instrument is on the superior lateral surface of the proximal stem body.
