An uncoated femoral stem prosthesis is a metal implant used in total hip replacement surgery to replace the damaged femoral neck. It provides structural support and stability for the hip joint without relying on coatings to bond with bone, relying instead on bone cement for fixation during implantation.
These devices are typically regulated as medical implants, often requiring pre-market approval or clearance depending on the jurisdiction. They are supplied sterile and intended for surgical use by orthopedic specialists, with variations in material composition like cobalt-chrome or titanium.
