Functional description
The PROFEMUR® Xm stem is a dual-taper femoral stem made of highly polished forged CoCr for cemented use. Stems are available in sizes 0-4. Included with the femoral stem is a PMMA distal femoral stem centralizer, which is used to ensure the stem taper properly engages the cement mantle.
