What is it indicated for?

The Salvage/Oncology Hip and Total Femur System is designed to replace the either the enctire femur or a large portion of the proximal femur in cases of severe bone loss most commonly due to oncological diagnoses or limb salvage following multiple revisions.

The device requires the use of a modular head, acetabular component and when used as a total femur replacement a Finn Knee tibial component.

All components of this system are indicated for use with bone cement.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
