The bi-metric XR series of Hip implants blends biomet s proven philosophy and tradition with Advanced technology porous primary hip series
BI-METRIC XR SERIES implant technology The Bi-Metric XR Hip Series has been designed to meet the demands of today s active patient. The XR Series is a fusion of sound engineering principals and surgical expertise, utilizing modern manufacturing and implant design technologies. Standard Bi-Metric Stem Bi-Metric XR Stem Polished Neck Surface: Polished neck and shoulder geometry to help reduce the amount of wear on the implant surface. Reduced Tapered Trapezoidal Neck: A shorter Morse-type taper with a trapezoidal neck geometry to reduce the risk of impingement. SPP RPP CDH * Standard (SPP), Reduced (RPP) and CDH profile stems provide for an accurate fit in the proximal femur. The RPP stem is reduced medially 4mm from the SPP stem. Clinically Proven PPS Porous Plasma Spray Coating: 2 4 A titanium alloy substrate combined with non-interconnected, circumferential titanium porous coating has been designed for bony ingrowth to lock in the femoral implant and create a seal to particulate debris migration that may help to reduce osteolysis and improve long-term fixation. 8 *CDH neck not shown in this photo illustration.
Bi-Planar Tapered Stem: Biomet s philosophy incorporates a clinically proven 3 bi-planar taper geometry. The stem tapers 3 from the proximal shoulder to the distal tip of the implant and from the lateral shoulder to the medial calcar area. The taper affords greater proximal stress off-loading and minimizes the need to remove distal cortical bone. Each implant s distinct lateral-to-medial taper is designed to provide physiologic proximal load transfer and exceptional implant-to-patient fit. Trapezoidal neck geometry reduces the risk of impingement and provides for an increased range of motion up to 145º using the M 2 a-taper 32mm articulation. Titanium: All Bi-Metric XR Stems are constructed of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy to enhance bio-compatibility, high fatigue strength and a low modulus of elasticity. 131.5º 126.5º Interlok Surface: Provides a roughened titanium surface for bone ongrowth, enhancing the potential for long-term fixation. Increased lateral offset is provided by an option of either a 131.5º or 126.5º neck angle, allowing accurate matching of patient anatomy and improved tissue tension and leg length restoration.
BI-METRIC XR SERIES implant technology the XR Series of hip implants is built on the design and long term clinical success of the Bi-metric Stem uncompromised tradition and technology The foundation for the XR Series of implants is the excellent long-term clinical results of proximal-to-distal tapered stem geometries (Figure 1). The 3º bi-planer taper provides physiologic proximal load transfer and preserves distal cortical bone, significantly reducing the likelihood of proximal resorbtion. The Bi-Metric XR family of femoral components uses net-shape forgings and advanced manufacturing technology to optimize the consistency of multiple geometries and configurations. The combined technology and geometries have proven to meet the needs of both the patient and the surgeon for successful cementless hip reconstruction. Meticulous design and superior materials, combined with improved manufacturing techniques, have allowed for advanced concepts in femoral components and instrumentation. Net-shape forging technology results in a consistent and reproducible surgical technique. This advanced net-forging technology provides a more precise envelope for the implant, which has greatly reduced the human variability, or hand polishing, associated with previous manufacturing methods. This technology allows for superior reproduction of the compound angles on the finished implants and has been integral in the development of the highest standards of performance. In addition, net-forgings adhere to the industry s most exacting dimension tolerances, which provide a more consistent broach-to-implant fit. The XR Series implants maximize the effectiveness of net-forging technology while maintaining the specific features that surgeons prefer.

BI-METRIC XR SERIES implant technology Figure 1 Above is an SEM photograph at 100x magnification showing PPS plasma spray porous coating. titanium PPS Porous plasma spray Plasma spray is a three-dimensional distribution of randomly dispersed titanium particles (Figure 1). Biomet s proprietary plasma spray application is unique in that only the titanium alloy powder used to create the coating is heated, not the implant s substrate (Figure 2). Plasma spray porous coating is applied to the substrate of the implant at a low temperature, which preserves up to 90% of the mechanical strength of the implant. 2 Randomly shaped particles are flattened upon impact with the substrate. An arbitrary distribution of pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns is generated, providing a larger contact area between the particles and the substrate (Figure 3). The resulting surface is rough in contrast to the smooth surfaces of a beaded implant. stability, interface strength and contact to the bony surface area are maximized by the irregular surface. This feature allows the implant to scrape bone into the pores during implantation, providing solid initial fixation. In addition, the random particle dimensions result in a varied pore size distribution. Smaller pores are important for initial fixation because they can fill in with bone more quickly to help promote early osseointegration. Larger pores require a longer time to fill in and provide for long-term fixation with continued macro bone in-growth. Bony in-growth is important for mechanical interlocking and maximum load transfer. Studies show that rough titanium has been found to have a good propensity for adhesion of osteoblasts. 17 Circumferentially coating the femoral component with plasma spray creates a barrier to particulate debris (metallic, polyethylene or PMMA), which can trigger a macrophage response that can initiate osteolysis. 1,5,9,14 Tanzer, et al., have reported that sealing the endosteum from the pumping of debris may be the most important factor in preventing osteolysis in total hip patients. 18 The lack of longitudinal pore interconnectivity creates a seal from this particulate debris migration, which may help to reduce osteolysis and improve long-term fixation. 7,18 While other femoral components have circumferential porous coating, it is not Biomet s clinically proven non-interconnected plasma spray. 3,7,13 The Bi-Metric XR Series implants offer a variety of surface finishes that promote fixation. Biomet s porous plasma sprayed components have shown significantly lower rates of osteolysis than other circumferentially-coated components. 8,11,12,15,16 Proximal circumferential non-interconnected plasma spray works in conjunction with the implant design for optimal bone ingrowth. A roughened Interlok finish distally provides the medium for bone ongrowth which is consistent with proximal fixation.

Offset restoration In total hip reconstruction, the most effective and easily manipulated mechanical variable available to the surgeon to optimize the biomechanics of the hip is the offset of the prosthesis. Having the ability to change the offset allows the surgeon to increase joint stability and restore normal hip function. If the potential offset deficiency is not identified or treated, it could lead to joint instability, limp, and increased joint reaction forces. The advantage, intraoperatively, is that it allows for adjustment of offset and soft tissue tension without changing the neck resection level or the length of the leg. In-depth studies have concluded that femurs with greater horizontal offset often have a more varus neck shaft angle. As the stem size increases, the required offset also increases. 4 The Bi-Metric XR component s design is based on this philosophy. The Bi-Metric XR Series implants employ two different femoral neck angles to achieve optimal offset restoration. The standard proximal profile stems (SPP) utilize a 131.5º neck angle and the reduced proximal profile stems (RPP) offer both a 131.5º and 126.5º neck shaft angle to increase offset (Figure 1). These neck angle options combined with seven modular head neck length choices work in unison to promote gradual off-loading of stresses from the femoral component throughout the entire femur. anatomic offsets enhance joint stability and help restore hip biomechanics by providing the opportunity to tighten soft tissue without creating leg length discrepancies Femoral Offset RPP 0mm 4mm 3mm 4mm 126.5º 131.5º 3mm Figure 1: Comparison of head location for XR series RPP stems: Computer model illustrates the +3mm head position on the 126.5º stem is lateralized 4mm from the standard head position on the 131.5º stem.
