The usage of cement in hip arthroplasty has been a common fixation method for decades. Cemented fixation options are beneficial especially for elderly patients. Femoral neck fractures, geriatric and traumatological cases as well as osteoarthritis are indications for a partial or total cemented treatment.
The cementing philosophies are adressed by various stem concepts differing in polished or matt stem surfaces as well as using a line-to-line or cement mantle anchoring technique.

AS Technology
The AS Technology is a multilayer coating with a special ceramic surface and a high abrasion resistance.
/
Removal instruments
Several types of different instruments are available for cement removal within the SQ.line program.
/
Accessories
Intra-medullary plug to stop the cement flow and distal centralizers for dedicated stem lines to enable a central position in the cement mantle or allowing a controlled seating of the polished implants.

The AESCULAP® cemented hip implant portfolio offers a wide range of treatment options for partial, hybrid or total cemented arthroplasty. In the last years the development of new implant options adress the demands of various implant materials and diverse philosophies in cementing technique. National joint registries support the use of cement fixation by showing good or even superior performance for specific patient groups1.
