Hip Total Resurfacing System
Accumulated experience has shown that wear particles of polyethylene are the principle cause of interface failure. This
is particularly important in young, high activity individuals where long term fixation is needed. The time has come when
the use of optimally designed metal on metal bearings with greatly reduced potential for wear generation should be
considered in such patients.
Biomet’s commitment to manufacturing Gold Standard Metal on Metal implants dates back to 1961, with the Stanmore
Total Hip System. Followed shortly after by the McKee Farrah Total Hip, and more recently with the M
2
a™ Hip System.
In response to this, Biomet, alongside Key Development Centres world-wide, has developed the ReCap
®
Total
Resurfacing System.
