The Solar T otal Shoulder System... ® Key Benefits: • Male trunnion humeral component more accurately recreates the anatomic center of rotation • Patented, divergent peg gleniod takes advantage of greatest bone density in superior and inferior regions of the glenoid • Unique dual radius head allows for independent sizing of head thickness and head diameter All humeral heads, glenoids and humeral components are completely interchangeable

The Solar® Total Shoulder provides a completely interchangeable, modular system which allows the surgeon the flexibility to achieve proper soft tissue tensioning and range of motion in either hemi or total arthroplasty procedures. Cement or press-fit fixation of the humeral component can be achieved while maximizing component selection. • Patented, most stable glenoid available* • Most user friendly instruments *Results on file at Stryker

Shoulder System Humeral Components The design of the Solar® humeral • Proximal body has a roughened, grit blasted texture to aid in accommodate a wide range of cement adhesion humeral anatomy. An extensive • Distal end is polished for easy radiographic study was conducted removal of the stem, if revision of from which the data was used to set components. These parameters • Proximal collar is minimized for included component stem length, easier access to the cement proximal sizing, distal canal sizing, mantle in the event of a revision humeral head diameters, head height and the location of the...

Glenoid Components The Solar® glenoid component has The inferior angled peg, straight superior been developed to address the peg, and peg location are major factors issues of glenoid loosening and long that contribute to the stability of the Solar™ term fixation. The components are glenoid component. The peg design and manufactured from ultra-high locations take advantage of the greatest molecular weight polyethylene bone density in the superior and inferior (UHMWPE) and sized to provide aspects of the glenoid. They avoid the anatomic curvature to the glenoid poorest bone quality region of the...

Humeral Heads The Solar® humeral heads are manufactured from cobalt chromium alloy to minimize poly wear. The articulating spherical radius is constant throughout the size range. Therefore, all humeral heads, glenoid components, and humeral components within the Solar® Total Shoulder System are completely interchangeable. The heads also have a unique Dual Radius Design which allows for the independent sizing of head thickness and head diameter. For instance, a head thickness of 21mm is available to the surgeon in four diameters, 40, 45, 50, and 55mm. This allows the surgeon to balance the soft...

Solar® Bipolar Shoulder System The Solar® Bipolar component consists of three pre-assembled pieces: a cobalt chromium shell, UHMWPE insert and locking ring. Used as a hemishoulder replacement device, the Solar® Bipolar is intended to articulate directly with the anatomic glenoid. The bi-rotational nature of the Bipolar head offers potentially less wear on the acromion and the glenoid due to decreased friction and a reduction in loading forces to both of these structures. Bipolar Exclusive Features: • Pre-assembled outer shell and insert • Clinically established patented locking mechanism based...
