Uncemented Revision with Pneumatic Shock Waves

The removal of cementless prosthesis using an Extended Trochanteric Osteotomy – ETO (transfemoral access) can end with major damage to the bone. The OrthoClast2 System, in combination with the flexible micro chisel, preserves bone stock and can avoid the need for an ETO. The OrthoClast2 System works with shockwave technology, similar to that used by a pneumatic hammer.
