CORAIL PINNACLE: Goldern Standard linked to cost of revision

CORAIL Hip System

CORAIL Hip System has over 30 years of clinical heritage and demonstrates 93.7% Stem Survivorship at 30 Years.3 It is the most widely used primary hip stem construct with the PINNACLE Acetabular Cup System in the NJR.4 CORAIL Stems are offered in a variety of sizes to treat both primary and revision cases.

PINNACLE Acetabular Cup System

PINNACLE Acetabular Cup System has been provided to over 3 million patients worldwide since its introduction, across 15 years of clinical heritage.5 PINNACLE Acetabular Cups are offered in a variety of styles to treat both primary and revision cases.

ACTIS™ Total Hip System

ACTIS Total Hip System was designed for use in tissue sparing approaches like the Anterior Approach (although it can be used with traditional approaches) and demonstrates enhanced initial stability compared to collarless stems.6,7

CORAIL Collared Stem combined with PINNACLE Acetabular Cup has 28% less chance of revision vs all other cementless constructs in NJR.8
