Durom® Hip Resurfacing
Durom =Durability + Range of Motion
Precision Swiss manufacturing combined with advanced design based on years of clinical experience have resulted in the Durom Hip Resurfacing which represents a substantial step forward in the field of hip replacement. The principle design features are based around optimising the durability of both the bearing and the component fixation, combined with providing excellent range of motion.
The Durom Hip Resurfacing has been designed for use in young active patients who are likely to outlive a "conventional" hip prosthesis. Emphasis has been placed on a highquality bearing surface, preservation of bone stock and durable fixation of the components to the skeleton.
- The sophisticated femoral instrumentation permits very accurate and reproducible positioning of the femoral component, allowing the smallest possible femoral implant to be used.
- Precise femoral instruments and a distinct implant design produce an even cement mantle of approximately 1mm, reducing the risk of fatigue failure of the bone cement.
- The recesses within the femoral component allow controlled pressurization of doughy cement into cancellous bone and function as antirotational features.
