Cementless Acetabular Prosthesis

The maximum wear properties of X-alt highly crosslinked polyethylene are achieved by optimizing crosslinking parameters, while the maximum strength characteristics are maintained. Biolox delta ceramic heads offer a 50% reduction in wear compared to a Cobalt Chrome head of the same size, while also surpassing traditional ceramics in terms of strength. X-alt highly crosslinked polyethylene and delta ceramics, when combined, achieve the optimal balance of minimal wear and maximum strength.FEATURES AND BENEFITS

The X-alt™ crosslinking parameters achieve an optimal equilibrium between the strength of the material and the reduction of wear. The likelihood of particle-induced osteolysis and subsequent implant loosening is reduced as a result of reduced wear.input:
output:Melt-annealed to ensure that the material’s properties remain consistent over time. The material can degrade if free radicals are not removed, as they can form a bond with oxygen. The annealing process eliminates free radicals, thereby ensuring resistance to oxidation.input:
output:Enhancing joint stability and preventing dislocation, larger diameter heads increase the range of motion and “jump distance” of the head.input:
output:RESISTANCE TO WEARThe primary cause of THA failure is addressed by crosslinking X-alt. The body’s inflammatory response to polyethylene wear debris is the cause of wear-induced osteolysis. The primary cause of total hip failure is subsequent implant loosening. These results have been clinically validated, and highly crosslinked polyethylene exhibits significantly reduced wear in hip simulator tests.
