Durom® Femoral Component - Transfer Force the Way Nature Intended
|
The Durom Femoral component was developed for use in patients who are likely to outlive a “conventional” hip prosthesis. It is designed to restore high levels of function and joint stability while removing as little bone as possible. The Durom Femoral Component is distinctive in the following ways: |
|
- The sophisticated femoral instrumentation permits very accurate and reproducible positioning of the femoral component, allowing the smallest possible femoral implant to be used.
- Precise femoral instruments and a distinct implant design produce an even cement mantle of approximately 1mm, reducing the risk of fatigue failure of the bone cement.
- The recesses within the femoral component allow controlled pressurization of doughy cement into cancellous bone and function as antirotational features.
