PyroCarbon Radial Head

The Ascension PyroCarbon Modular Radial Head provides superior wear characteristics against cartilage and bone due to the properties of PyroCarbon. It offers surgeons and their patients a radial head replacement with improved articulating properties.

PyroCarbon implants have seen significantly less wear to articular cartilage than metal implants.  92% probability of cartilage survival articulating with PyroCarbon compared to 20% with metal alloys.  

Anatomic stem and head sizes to fit your indications and patient anatomy.  Bone removal is minimized, and critical soft tissue structures are preserved.  There is a cementless, press-fit titanium stem

Simplified instruments provide a reproducible outcome.  The resection guide provides accurate visual reference for selecting standard or long collar stems.  The implant is assembled on the back table.
