Metha 1

Cementless prosthesis

Metha® Short stem fixation

The cementless prosthesis stem is anchored metaphyseally within the closed ring of the femoral neck.

Metha® preserves valuable muscle and bone structures and leads to a primary loading stability.

Metha 2

Offers different offset and torsion variations

Modular cone adapters

The nine modular cone adapters offers different offset and torsion variations following implantation of the stem.

The joint stability and range of motion can be optimal adjusted taking account of the soft tissue tension and implant position.

Metha 3

Osteointegration

Plasmapore® µ-CaP Surface

For osteointegration Metha®  is  round coated with Plasmapore® µ-CaP. In a special procedure, the proven micro porous Plasmapore®  coating is given a 20 µm layer of µ CaP, a very pure calcium phosphate. This layer has an osteoconductive effect and accelerates contact between the bone and the prosthesis stem.
