LINK - Model C.F.P. - Hip Prosthesis Stem Curvatures
Two different stem curvatures allow adaptation to the individual patient’s anatomy - for extended support of the implant on the Shenton’s line. The successful ribbed structure provides secure, rotationally stable fixation in the compressed cancellous bone.
Femoral neck-preserving, bioharmonic hip prosthesis
The C.F.P. Hip Prosthesis Stem enables femoral neck-preserving, cementless implantation. It was developed specifically for young, active patients, whose long life expectancy means that they are more likely than older patients to experience aseptic loosening with a conventional hip prosthesis.
The design of the C.F.P. Hip Prosthesis Stem incorporates biomechanical loading and anchoring principles, conforming to the hip anatomy and physiology. This ensures stable, stress-resistant anchoring of the prosthesis.
The bone-preserving resection, preserving the femoral neck, creates favorable conditions for later interventions.
Reduced stress shielding
The pronounced ribbed profile and the LINK Tilastan alloy give the stem a high level of structural and material-based elasticity compared to other hip systems. This in turn minimizes femoral stiffness, thereby reducing “stress shielding”.
- Minimal bone resection by preserving the femoral neck
- Anatomical stem shape and integral anteversion
- Collar allows physiologic compressive forces to be transmitted back into the femur 1, 2
- 98.3% survival rate after 11 years3
