Stem Apricot

CONCEPT AND FEATURES
  • The femoral stem is designed to guarantee an optimal metaphyseal filling.
  • The metaphyseal zone has a triangular section to avoid the generation of varus forces.
  • The triangular section in the metaphiseal zone guarantees an antirotational effect and the round section in the bottom stem part allows an optimal medullary canal filling.
  • The internal stem profile changes with the implant size in order to keep constant the head offset and avoid a valgisant effect for the smaller sizes.

  • Optimal angle definition: 1.5° of sagital slope guarantees resistance to subsidence and 2.5° of frontal slope allows an optimal diaphyseal self-centering.
  • 12/14 taper.
  • Short taper to avoid impingement (even with double mobility acetabular cup).
  • 135° cervico-diaphyseal angle.
