Cemented radial head prosthesis

MODULAR RADIAL HEAD SYSTEM Key Benefits Smooth stem implant designs supported by two long term studies (12-year 1 and 8-year 2 mean follow up) Modular stem and head design provides 324 size combinations Simple design has no polyethylene, moving parts, or set screws 37 PATIENTS with competitive press-fit stems 8 (25) % (3) Remained implanted but were loose 24%(9) Removed because of loosening 68% 8 (25) Well-Fixed Radiographic representation of a rough press-fit stem with severe osteolysis and a loosening post-operatively, which was subsequently removed as a result of pain and crepitus. Revision Rate for Wright EVOLVE™ PROLINE Smooth Stems2 Zero revised at 8.2 ± 2.9 years. 55 PATIENTS with EVOLVE smooth stems 100% (55) Zero revisions and no evidence of functional deterioration EVOLVE PROLINE Radial Head System Your go-to implant3 for over 15 years. Reliable from the beginning. Radial Head System: The Market Leader Now with plating options: introducing the EVOLVE® TRIAD™ Radial Head and Radial Neck Plates. • Over 50,000 implanted1 • Independently studied: non-design team JBJS study from Oulu, Finland concludes that smooth stems and cemented bipolar designs should be considered superior to press-fit prosthesis2 • Smooth stem implant designs supported by two long term studies (12-year3 and 8-year4 average follow up) • Prospective data shows proven performance in two-year outcomes5 • Press-fit ingrowth designs have been shown to experience symptomatic loosening6 • Smooth stem design avoids ingrowth, and thereby avoids the need for a tight fit in fractured bone • Smooth stem design allows for dynamic adjustment, a biomechanical design rationale chosen because
