  • Self-Broaching Neck Preserving Hip Stem
    Publication number: 20220117745
    Abstract: A self-broaching, neck-preserving hip stem includes a set of rasp teeth on a distal-lateral portion of the stem to allow the stem to be impacted into a femur without the use of surgical broaches. The rasp teeth are disposed on a relief surface. The stem includes a length, radius of curvature, and a dual-taper in the anterior-posterior and distal-lateral directions which allow the neck to self-broach and seat itself proximal to the conventional resection level to preserve greater bone stock in the femur.
