PROFEMUR® TL Hip Stem System

The Flat tapered wedge stem geometry is designed to provide primary fixation via a proximal femur fit with a reduced geometry to help conserve bone at the lateral shoulder and in the A/P dimension. The versatility of both monolithic and modular neck designs allow for a customizable reconstruction* and address soft tissue tension for a range of patient anatomies. With modular necks, adjustments can be made after stem implantation to address a range of patient anatomies.
