Taperloc® Complete Hip System
Taperloc® Complete Hip System
The Taperloc Complete Hip System builds on the clinically proven Taperloc hip stem.1,2,3
Launched in 1983, the Taperloc Hip Stem is the longest clinically referenced hip stem with a wedge shape, titanium substrate, and proximally circumferential titanium porous plasma sprayed design.1,2,3

- Features
- Reduced Distal Femoral Stem
A reduced distal geometry in which a gradual reduction of the stem substrate occurs distal to the porous coating level.
- Microplasty® Femoral Stem
A reduced stem length from the standard stem, designed to better address minimally invasive techniques, providing an alternative to femoral resurfacing while offering a solution in cases where a bone conserving prosthesis is desirable.
- XR 123° Femoral Stem
Helps address femurs with a more varus neck by allowing for additional offset to properly restore hip biomechanics and soft tissue tensioning.
- Full-length Femoral Stem
Based upon the original Taperloc design that has been clinically proven in a variety of patient types.1
- Benefits
