ADEPT Hip System

Setting the standard
Finsbury orthopaedics has set the standards in metal-on-metal design and manufacturing technology since the early 1990s. The ADEPT® Hip System is the accumulation of our experience and includes both resurfacing and total hip options.

Unique flexibility of sizing is provided with 2mm increments on the head which allows for two cup sizes for every head and two head sizes for every cup. Not only is this feature bone conserving, it also assists with optimising the range of motion.

The critical features of the ADEPT® Hip System and technical rationale are based entirely on clinical history rather than short-term mechanical studies. The ADEPT® metal-on-metal resurfacing system follows well-established clinical history and has evolved from the Ring Hip and the Birmingham Hip Resurfacing.

ADEPT® Cup
The cup has an as-cast beaded structure for bone ingrowth which is encouraged by a coating of hydroxyapatite. The beaded surface extends from the edge of the cup right over the pole providing the maximum opportunity for bone ingrowth and secure fixation.

The articular surface is a precision bearing controlled using proprietry techniques developed specifically for metal-on-metal arthroplasty.

Additionally the ADEPT® Total Hip instrumentation has various unique features for precise bone preparation and implant orientation for conventional or minimally invasive procedures, as demonstrated below with images taken from the operative technique.
