Indicazioni terapeutiche:

The Elite Modular Head is a cobalt-chromium modular metal head designed to articulate with a polyethylene acetabular liner and to press fit onto an appropriate femoral component. The Elite Modular head has a 9/10 taper and can only be used with a corresponding tapered femoral component. The Elite Modular Head is intended to replace the femoral head during total hip arthrosplasty in patients with severe arthropathy due to advanced rheumatoid or osteo-arthritis where conservative therapy or alternative treatments have failed or are considered unsuitable, arthropathy due to degenerative disease, acute trauma, and a previous failed joint replacement.
