Cementless total elbow prosthesis Discovery®

Backed by over 15 years of clinical history, the Discovery® Elbow System features spherical clondyles on the hinge to allow for the distribution of stress evenly across the system. The Discovery Elbow system also includes Vitamin E+ poly, which has been found to reduce wear, minimize oxidation, and maintain the mechanical integrity of the Discovery Elbow System. BEARING DESIGN Spherical hinge reduces wear by providing increased articular surface contact area between the humeral and ulnar components Varus/valgus laxity of 7 degrees Optimized hinge size addresses individual anatomy by allowing any humeral component to be used with any ulnar component Posterior hinge allows for assembly or disassembly without compromising either epicondyle HUMERAL STEM Bowed stem reproduces anatomy through 5 degree lateral offset and 5 degree internal rotation Cylindrical base preserves bone to minimize stress risers at the supracondylar columns Anterior flange for enhanced rotational stability and to help prevent posterior sublaxation ULNAR STEM 23 degree anterior neck angle of stem allows for anatomic axis of motion Polyethylene offset and lateral bow provide for reproduced anatomy Clinically proven ArCom® polyethylene reduces the possibility of stress hemi-delamination and early polyethylene failure
