Biomechanical Superiority
The neck shaft angle of the OptiFit Femoral Stem is 130 degrees. The normal anatomic CCD angle of a healthy hip is between 120 and 135 degrees. The value of the CCD of the OptiFit Femoral Stem provides optimized range of motion of the affected hip joint and enables soft tissue tensioning without compromising the length of the leg. The neck of the OptiFit Femoral Stem has been designed to provide increased range of motion in flexion and extension.
Product Philosophy
Unlike cementless femoral fixation, modern cemented femoral fixation has numerous advatages; it is versatile, durable, and can de used regardless of the diagnosis, proximal femoral goemetry, anteversion, or bone quality. The design of th OptiFit Cemented Femoral Stem relies on the geometry of the original Charnley stem with excellent clinical results.
