Features
 Reduced Distal Femoral Stem

A reduced distal geometry in which a gradual reduction of the stem substrate occurs distal to the porous coating level.

Microplasty® Femoral Stem

A reduced stem length from the standard stem, designed to better address minimally invasive techniques, providing an alternative to femoral resurfacing while offering a solution in cases where a bone conserving prosthesis is desirable.

XR 123° Femoral Stem

Helps address femurs with a more varus neck by allowing for additional offset to properly restore hip biomechanics and soft tissue tensioning.

Full-length Femoral Stem

Based upon the original Taperloc design that has been clinically proven in a variety of patient types.1
