<strong>Operative</strong> <strong>Technique</strong><br />
Fitting the distal trial stem<br />
Impaction is performed using the<br />
distal impactor (Ref XIM007002).<br />
Palmar proximal resection<br />
using the cutting guide<br />
The guide (Ref XVIPR001001)<br />
is positioned to rest against the dorsal<br />
stop of the proximal trial stem.<br />
The pin of the guide is inserted<br />
into the housing of the trial stem.<br />
Use an oscillating saw to complete the<br />
palmar resection<br />
Note:<br />
The use of a narrow saw is<br />
recommended so as to minimise<br />
the risk of damage to the lateral<br />
ligaments.<br />
Dorsal cortex removal<br />
Take care to free the dorsal cortex<br />
of P1 (1), using a saw or a gouge<br />
forceps, so as to eliminate residual<br />
bone debris. If this is necessary, use<br />
the saw to remove final bone debris<br />
from the palmar resection (2).<br />
Note:<br />
The presence of bone debris at the<br />
periphery of the stem may impair<br />
the impactaction of the final<br />
surface and its retention on the<br />
stem.<br />
