A press-fit hip femur prosthesis is a one-piece implant designed to replace the upper part of the femur in total hip replacement surgery. It fits snugly into the remaining bone without cement, relying on mechanical pressure to secure it in place, often supplemented by screws or bolts for added stability.
These devices are typically regulated as implantable medical devices, with classification and supply rules varying by jurisdiction. They are usually supplied sterile and intended for surgical use by orthopedic specialists, adhering to strict manufacturing and quality standards.
