VendorCorin Group PLC
ItemCormet™ Hip Resurfacing System
SizeFemoral Component: available in 4mm increments from 40mm to 56mm outside diameter
Acetabular Component: Cups are available in 2mm OD increments from 46mm to 64mm, with two cup sizes for each head size
Features
  • Extensive range of options: Within the range there are cemented and cementless femoral components and standard and dysplasia cups.
  • Femoral Component: Cormet femoral components are available in 4mm increments from 40mm to 56mm outside diameter, and are manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring optimum sphericity and surface finish.
  • Cementless Heads: Introduced in 1998 to give the surgeon more flexibility, the femoral head can be prepared and then an intra-operative decision can be made between the cemented or cementless head.
  • Acetabular Component: Cups are available in 2mm OD increments from 46mm to 64mm, with two cup sizes for each head size, providing surgical flexibility.
  • Bi-coating: All cups and cementless heads are bi-coated™ with a plasma sprayed porous titanium coating overlaid with hydroxyapatite, which provides excellent primary and long-term fixation.
  • Dysplasia Cup: An advanced dysplasia cup is available for use in the deficient acetabulum in both hip resurfacing and large diameter total hip replacement. The use of a unique twin thread diameter screw design allows the screw to be advanced within the acetabulum prior to engagement with the cup flange, thereby minimising the possibility of the cup being disturbed from its chosen position during insertion. The tapered section between the two diameters of the screw allows the thread form to be constant over the entire length of the screw. Based on a standard cortical bone screw, the screw tip is fluted to allow self-tapping. This unique design has the benefits of easy introduction, improved cup positioning and increased pullout resistance.
