Intended purpose

A hip joint replacement component of the MUTARS system that replaces the proximal part of the femur. Primary indication for the use of the MUTARS systems is after bone resection because of a tumour. Further indications for the use of the MUTARS systems are massive bone loss such as in Morbus Gorham or for the revision arthroplasty and for the prosthetic treatment in case of fractures, pseudarthrosis and arthrosis.

Functional description

TiAl6V4 alloy with sand blasted surface. On the lateral surface a porous structure is provided for better bone ingrowth. Trochanter major-like curvature for attachment of trochanteric bone and/or soft tissue with various lateral and medial suture holes. Connects with other MUTARS components through a precise female cylindrical connection with serrated teeth (72) to provide rotational stability and allow for intra-operative adjustment of the femoral antetorsion angle in 5 degree increments.
