The expandable REX Cement Stop meets the highest requirements within cemented hip arthroplasty. It does resist the high pressure during pressurisation and insertion of the hip stem. It does neither leak nor migrate, even when placed beyond the isthmus. Various types of cement restrictors are only effective in tapered and regularly shaped femur canals, while the REX Cement Stop occludes any canal, also when it is irregular, stove pipe shaped, or counter-tapered.
The REX Cement Stop offers a perfect solution for virtually any situation in cemented hip arthroplasty. With the improved insertion instrument it has become a reliable and fail-safe system for restricting bone cement in the femur, enabling adequate pressurization and cement penetration into the bone.
