Anatomic Radial Head System

Introduction

Acumed’s Anatomic Radial Head Prosthesis is designed to provide a precise anatomical implant to replace the patient’s native radial head.

 

Anatomic Radial Heads and Stems replicate the patient’s natural radial head geometry. The offset anatomic dish on the proximal end of the radial head implant provides improved articulation with the capitellum. The neck angle is 4 degrees, preventing implant loosening and maintaining the proper angled relationship between the radial neck and the plane of the head.

 

Straightforward Instrumentation includes a unique collar height gauge for an improved method of determining overall length of the radius. Color-coded broaches, trial heads and stems provide quick distinction between system components and sizes. Collar reamers are included in the system to create a perpendicular neck surface for the stem collar.

Indications

The Anatomic Radial Head System is a comprehensive solution for radial head fractures.

Key Features and Benefits

200 Head and Stem Combinations provide the surgeon with an implant that matches the patient’s natural anatomic radial head shape. 20 stem options in five diameters, each with four collar height options provide proper restoration of the overall length of the radius. The anatomical heads are provided in five sizes, left and right, to accommodate various patient sizes.
