FEMORAL PROSTHESIS HAVING ROD INTRODUCIBLE INTO THE FEMUR

摘要

FIELD: medical engineering.;SUBSTANCE: device has rod 1, proximal portion 6 of which is introducible into femur metaphysis. The proximal portion has projecting rib 8 on anterior and posterior side. Medial border 23 is directed at least partially on its length in a direction different from longitudinal one 27 of rod 1. The direction deviates upwards to femur neck 2. Medial border 23 is steep. Rib 8 having edge restricted with steep border 23 has height lowering in lateral direction.;EFFECT: provided resistance caused by unloading of bone degradation.;5 cl, 6 dwg
