Main features
- A set of instruments for easily reproducing the hip cement spacer
- Available in three sizes (S, M, L)
- Moulds made from medical grade silicone for repeated sterilisation
Note: bone cement and antibiotics are NOT provided.
For an acetabular size of less than 50 mm, an acetabular cup may not be necessary; the choice of size should be based on the diameter of the head.
At least two batches of bone cement are required for the femoral spacer. The amount of bone cement required for the spacer cup depends on the size of the acetabular and the bone defect.
High viscosity cement must be used.
