TaperFit is a proven design with over 15 years of excellent clinical results.
History
Based on biomechanical principles clinically proven over more than 40 years.
100% survivorship for aseptic loosening with follow-up ranging out to 15 years.
Design
Collarless, polished and double tapered implant that utilises a world-class stem design.
Instrumentation is designed for axial and rotational control during insertion.
Intuitive in-line/axial stem introduction.
Intraoperative choice of/transition between captive and semi-captive stem introduction designed to reduce the likelihood of cement void creation.
Function
Recreation of biomechanics can be challenging, but with the right system this can be easy and effective.
Lateral shoulder improves cement pressurisation, proximal visualisation and final stem position.
Highly-polished surface of the TaperFit stem is designed to greatly reduce the risk of micromotion-induced abrasion at the stem-cement interface.
