SPLINED TAPERED MODULAR DISTAL STEM WITH PROXIMAL POROUS COATING

摘要

A modular femoral hip joint prosthesis can include a proximal femoral body having a distal end and a proximal end. The proximal end can be adapted to mate with a femoral head. A femoral stem can have a proximal section and a distal section. The femoral stem can be adapted to matingly connect with the distal end of the proximal femoral body. The proximal section can have a porous metal coating that is adapted to facilitate bony ingrowth. The distal section can have at least one spline formed along an outer surface.
