Body femoral/tibial extension stems are modular implants designed to restore structural integrity in the femur or tibia during revision knee or hip surgeries. They fit within the bone’s medullary canal to bridge gaps caused by bone loss or resection, helping stabilize prosthetic components and support limb function.
These devices are typically sterile, implantable, and made from uncoated metals like cobalt-chrome or titanium. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on risk and intended use, with supply typically through surgical specialists in orthopedic or trauma settings.
