Conformity Stem
The Conformity Stem platform provides a comprehensive stem solution to hip arthroplasty surgery. Conformity is available in 77 stem options with 155μm of fully-hydroxyapatite (HA) coating, multiple neck options, collared and collarless features, and cementless and cemented options.
Conformity’s design is based upon the widely accepted HA-coated stem design, which is well documented to facilitate stem fixation, stability, and longevity. The system is designed to help address deficiencies of other systems currently on the market. By offering multiple neck options with both collared and collarless options, United Orthopedic created a hip system that could be individualized to help recreate the anatomy of as many patients as possible.
