Cormet TM Activity Today’s younger patients demand more from their surgery – a long-lasting implant and a return to previous levels of activity. Cormet offers the choice of both cementless and cemented femoral components with optimal geometry, allowing minimal bone removal. The stable high performance bearing and low-wear metallurgy combine to form an enduring, bone-conserving implant, fulfilling patient expectations for a return to an active lifestyle. 4|

Bone conservation With a choice of cementless or cemented applications, the close fitting geometric design of the Cormet femoral component minimises the need for bone removal. Acetabular stability The equatorially expanded acetabular component gives excellent initial stability, with clinically proven Bi-coatTM and anti-rotational fins providing longterm bone integration. Favourable femoral loading The polished distal tip of the Cormet resurfacing allows favourable loading and minimises stress shielding of the femoral neck. Increased range of motion Cormet resurfacing and Optimom large...

Cormet TM Precision instrumentation Cormet Precision instrumentation ensures reproducible implant orientation. Corin pioneered the first ever neck centring alignment device, facilitating minimal access surgery and ensuring accurate reproducible femoral component positioning. Reproducible and accurate acetabular placement is achieved through the simple vacuum introducer, enabling re-orientation prior to final impaction. 10 |
