Emergence®

The EMERGENCE cemented cup respects the fundamental of the LFA (low friction arthroplasty) described by Sir John Charnley in 1962:

• ultra high molecular weight polyethylene arthroplasty
• reduced bearing diameter of 22.2mm or 28mm
• wide articulating chamfer in the lower quadrant of the cup favoring the ROM
• deep concentric grooves for a long-term fixation to the bone cement
• polar cylindrical contact allowing to preserve an even cement mantle around the cup
• peripherical flange of diameter larger than the dome
• peripheral crenels allowing the pressurization of the cement
• circomferential radiloucent wire
• holding and implantation instrument indexed to the cup
