The Total Elbow Prosthesis (Right) is a system designed for Total Elbow Arthroplasty – TEA and reconstruction of the right elbow joint. It is intended to replace damaged articular structures with compatible prosthetic components, creating a Humeral–Ulnar Prosthetic Articulation as part of an integrated surgical reconstruction plan.
This version is specifically designed for the Right side and is available in two sizes: Small and Large. These options provide the orthopedic surgeon with different implant sizes during Preoperative Planning and Intraoperative Sizing, according to the dimensions of the Distal Humerus, Proximal Ulna, and the overall anatomy of the elbow joint.
The Total Elbow Prosthesis concept includes components extending into the distal humerus and proximal ulna, with a central articulation region designed to create the mechanical movement of the artificial joint according to the approved system design.
The Final Configuration is selected based on factors including Bone Anatomy, Bone Stock, Implant Fit, Joint Alignment, Soft-Tissue Condition, and intraoperative assessment findings.
According to the supplied product table, the Right Total Elbow Prosthesis range includes two separate AMS Product Codes: one for the Small size and one for the Large size. This facilitates product identification, implant inventory management, and Surgical Set Preparation.
What Is a Total Elbow Prosthesis?
A Total Elbow Prosthesis is an orthopedic joint replacement system used in Total Elbow Arthroplasty procedures to reconstruct the elbow joint using prosthetic components that replace the major articular structures between the Humerus and Ulna.
The artificial joint generally consists of:
Humeral Component ↔ Articulation Interface ↔ Ulnar Component
These components are designed to work together to provide elbow Flexion and Extension within the mechanical limits of the prosthetic system.
The current product is designed for:
Right Elbow
and is available in:
Small | Large
Product Components and Design
- Humeral Component
The component designed for the Distal Humerus.
It typically includes:
- Humeral Stem
- Proximal / Intramedullary Section
- Distal Articular Connection
The component is inserted into the Humeral Canal according to the required bone preparation and the approved Surgical Technique of the system.
- Ulnar Component
The component designed for the Proximal Ulna.
It incorporates a stem extending into the Ulnar Canal and connects to the articulation region of the artificial elbow joint.
- Central Articulation Interface
The connection region between the Humeral and Ulnar Components, responsible for creating the mechanical movement of the prosthetic elbow joint.
The product image indicates the presence of a Mechanical Articulation Assembly between the components. However, the supplied product data do not officially specify whether the system is:
- Linked
- Semi-Constrained
- Hinged
- or another mechanical classification
Therefore, the system should not be assigned any of these classifications on the website without confirmation from the approved Technical Datasheet.
- Intramedullary Stems
The components include stem extensions designed to extend within the intramedullary canals of the:
- Humerus
- Ulna
These stems form the interface between the implant and bone according to the fixation system used.
- Size-Specific Geometry
The system is available in two configurations:
- Small
- Large
providing different Implant Sizing options according to elbow anatomy.
Product Application
The Total Elbow Prosthesis (Right) is used in Total Elbow Arthroplasty / Total Elbow Replacement procedures involving the right arm, when the orthopedic surgeon determines that joint replacement is appropriate according to the clinical condition and the approved indications of the system.
The general surgical workflow may include:
- Preoperative Planning and evaluation of joint imaging.
- Surgical exposure of the elbow joint.
- Assessment of:
- Distal Humerus
- Proximal Ulna
- Bone Stock
- Joint Anatomy
- Bone preparation of the relevant intramedullary canals.
- Selection of the appropriate size: Small or Large.
- Trial Component Placement.
- Evaluation of:
- Alignment
- Implant Fit
- Flexion / Extension
- Joint Stability
- Soft-Tissue Balance
- Placement of the final Humeral and Ulnar Components.
- Formation of the Final Elbow Articulation according to the system.
- Final assessment of Range of Motion and Component Position.
The system should be selected and used by a Qualified Orthopedic Surgeon in accordance with the approved IFU and Surgical Technique.
