UTF™

Reduced hip stem

About us

The UTF™ stem designed by UNITED ORTHOPEDIC CORPORATION is a self-locking, conical, quadrangular, cement-free stem, partly distally tapered
The design promotes maximum joint stability, while the complete instrumentation system responds to the different approaches used by surgeons.

Description

14 sizes, 125mm to 161 mm in length
Titanium alloy
Proximal press-fit +0.5mm on each side (titanium plasma spray)
12/14 Morse taper
130° CCD angle
Standard and high offset range

Features

Rectangular section: rotationally stable

Dual taper: axial stability (depression)

Proximal press-fit: prevents penetration

refined proximal width in 1 to 2 mm increments depending on size: progressive and precise adjustments

Reduced distal width M/L: prevents excessive distal replacement to reduce the risk of stress-shielding

Standard and lateralised neck (High Offset): improves joint stability
the HO (High Offset) is lateralised without lengthening the limb (from 6 to 8mm depending on the size)

Optimised neck geometry to promote range of motion (ROM) and delay neck/cupula contact (impingement)

Curved end: facilitates implantation irrespective of approach

Instrumentation

Straight rasp holders, with offset and double offset to enable use with all approaches
