MiniHip

Bone Conserving Hip Replacement  
 

MiniHip
With its bone conserving stem and range of articulations, MiniHip provides a solution for today’s challenging and active patient:
 

  • Short stem to conserve bone for a less invasive procedure.
  • Titanium alloy for increased bio-compatibility.
  • Multiple high performance articulations.
  • Polished slim neck for increased range of motion.
  • Mid-neck resection for preservation of the femoral neck.
  • Fins for increased rotational stability.
  • Medial curve following medial calcar radius for a more anatomical bone conserving fit.
  • Bi-coat for initial fixation and osteointegration(1,2).
  • Polished distal tip to prevent distal fixation, may help to reduce the risk of anterior thigh pain(3).
  • Nine sizes with increasing neck length for a proportional fit.
