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.

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

  • Wedge shape 

  • Proximally circumferential titanium porous plasma sprayed design 

  • Titanium substrate 

  • Full Length 

  • Reduced Distal 

  • Microplasty (35 mm length reduction)
