MECTA-CEM ORTHOPAEDIC BONE CEMENT

USEr FrIENDLY ■ Precise polymerisation time thanks to highly accurate manufacturing processes.

■ Easy syringe filling due to low viscosity.

SIMPLE MIX, EASY DELIVERY

To facilitate orthopaedic bone cement mixing and delivery, Medacta has recently added into its product portfolio a new, effective cementation kit. This bone cement mixing and delivery system includes:

A VACUUM FOOT-PUMP FOr OPTIMUM CEMENT MIXING

A CLEAr MIXING TUBE

■ with a coloured mixing rod snap point to ensure easy identification after cement mixing

■ with a charcoal filter to limit the emission of fumes
