NEW HIP PROSTHESIS
 

Traditionally, it was said that hip replacements should be fitted to older people as their average life span was limited to 10-15 years.

With the arrival of new hip prostheses with their new materials and advanced design, this is no longer the case. The ideal age for the placement of a hip prosthesis has decreased significantly because of this.

• The presence of short stems allows its placement with increasingly smaller incisions and different approaches as the previous approach.

• The hydroxyapatite coating allows rapid integration with the bone.

• The ceramic heads allow less wear and tear and the average life of the prosthesis to rise above 30 years.

In general, the advances in this type of prosthesis allow a faster recovery, less intraoperative bleeding and therefore a lower rate of complications.

HIP PROSTHESIS MBA SURGICAL EMPOWERMENT

	Design Designed by Furlong y Osborn Pioneer with HAC Coating First implantation in 1985 More than 300.000 implantations around the world   At the present time it continues triumphing: Easy implantation Big articular diameters Reduce risk of luxation Femoral options more conservative Easy for any MIS approach

EVOLUTION STEM: FEATURES

Tradition Rectangular proximal geometry Total HAC Supravit coating Cone 12/14 Evolution Reduced lateral shoulder Reduction of medial radio Without collar Proximal Coating Supravit Zoned Simplified surgical technique Increased roughness Better pressfit and osseointegration
