The PIP
Soft Skeletal Implants, constructed of Silflex II advanced elastomer,
offer post-surgical results unavailable in any other finger joint
implants. The anatomic design highlights a volar hinge / one-piece
spacer (reduces ulnar drift and correct deformities), restores hand
functions, eliminates pain and improves cosmetics in lower demand
patients with easy to use color-coded instrumentation. The silicone
PIP has 10 degree flex to it (eliminates load placed on device &
eliminates stress to the hinge when hand is in neutral position).
Joint Specific Design
• Accommodates the specific, unique biomechanics and
anatomy of the MCP and PIP joints
Volar Hinge Axis
• Creates an anatomical balance between the flexor and
extensor mechanisms allowing full extension and flexion without
volar impingement
Hinge Exterior
• In conjunction with the volar hinge axis, the hinge
exterior design prevents volar impingement during flexion MCP and
PIP Soft Skeletal Implants, constructed of Silflex II advanced elastomer,
offer post-surgical results unavailable in any other finger joint
implants.
Interior Hinge Radius
• Circular radius reduces point stresses in
the hinge by directing the stress over a
wide area as flexed
Hinge Block Buttress
• Impedes bony overgrowth by providing full seating for
the resected bone
surface, eliminating the need for cumbersome grommets
Squared Implant Stems
• Provide rotational stability and allow for more precise
anatomical placement
