The POLARSTEM implant has been available outside the country since 2002 and it offers several design features that assist with muscle sparing approaches during total hip replacement procedures.
“The POLARSTEM implant has advantages over similar style stems that are currently on the market. The wider proximal fit and fill, as well as the reduced distal body of the stem has allowed a better patient fit for my patients with little to no limitations in regards to bone type or femoral morphologies,” says Jason Lang, MD, associate professor of orthopedic surgery at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N.C.
