hip resurfacing implants healthbase corin cormet hip resurfacing system stryker

Cormet Hip Resurfacing is a conservative treatment for the young, active, high demand patient group which conserves femoral bone, provides anatomical bone loading, eliminates polyethylene and is designed to be a high-function device. Stryker Medical Equipment has an agreement to market Corin's Cormet hip resurfacing device in the United States.

Key features:

Extensive range of options: Within the range there are cemented and cementless femoral components and standard and dysplasia cups.

Femoral Component: Cormet femoral components are available in 4mm increments from 40mm to 56mm outside diameter, and are manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring optimum sphericity and surface finish.

Cementless Heads: Introduced in 1998 to give the surgeon more flexibility, the femoral head can be prepared and then an intra-operative decision can be made between the cemented or cementless head.

Acetabular Component: Cups are available in 2mm OD increments from 46mm to 64mm, with two cup sizes for each head size, providing surgical flexibility.

Bi-coating: All cups and cementless heads are bi-coated™ with a plasma sprayed porous titanium coating overlaid with hydroxyapatite, which provides excellent primary and long-term fixation.

Dysplasia Cup: An advanced dysplasia cup is available for use in the deficient acetabulum in both hip resurfacing and large diameter total hip replacement. The use of a unique twin thread diameter screw design allows the screw to be advanced within the acetabulum prior to engagement with the cup flange, thereby minimising the possibility of the cup being disturbed from its chosen position during insertion. The tapered section between the two diameters of the screw allows the thread form to be constant over the entire length of the screw. Based on a standard cortical bone screw, the screw tip is fluted to allow self-tapping. This unique design has the benefits of easy introduction, improved cup positioning and increased pullout resistance.

Healthbase is the trusted source for global medical choices, connecting patients to leading healthcare facilities overseas. Healthbase's state-of-the-art, easy to use, information rich web-based system helps you research and arrange your medical care including necessary travel and accommodation, all at one place. We arrange first class services for patients at major internationally accredited hospitals in Singapore, Thailand, India, Mexico, Panama, Turkey, Costa Rica, Hungary and expanding to Argentina, Brazil and Malaysia. The cost of surgical care at our ever growing network of affiliated institutions is typically a fraction of the cost of care in the U.S. with equal or superior outcomes.
Healthbase's Dental Tourism provides a wide range of dental procedures through its partner dental offices and hospitals network in Mexico, Panama, Thailand, Singapore and India.
Over two hundred medical, dental and cosmetic procedures are available in various categories: Orthopedic procedures such as hip replacement, Birmingham hip resurfacing, artificial knee replacement, knee surgery, cosmetic procedures such as breast augmentation, face lift, rhinoplasty (nose surgery), liposuction, dental procedures such as bridges, implants, crowns, and procedures in categories such as cardiac, vascular, spinal, obesity, eye, LASIK, urology, general surgery, plastic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, weight-loss surgery, wellness and much more. The savings are up to 80% from typical USA prices.

Medical Tourism is the act of traveling abroad to receive medical, dental and cosmetic care. Medical Tourism is also called as Medical Travel, Health Tourism, Health Travel and Medical Value Travel. Significantly lower costs for best practice care is usually the primary motivation although some medical tourists go abroad for immediate availability of procedures and unavailable treatments. Patients frequently take advantage of the opportunity to vacation and tour inexpensively in the country they are visiting.
