SMR TT Hybrid Glenoid: The First Convertible Glenoid from Anatomic to Reverse
Do you know that SMR TT Hybrid Glenoid has been the first hybrid glenoid component convertible from anatomic to reverse?
Being part of the SMR portfolio since 2017, SMR TT Hybrid Glenoid provides an exclusive solution for glenoid replacement.
It is the first convertible glenoid component with hybrid fixation,(1,2) thanks to the modularity between the central Trabecular Titanium peg which remains in situ(3) and the dedicated reverse baseplate used to convert to RSA. The pre-assembled polyethylene can be disassembled in case of conversion thanks to dedicated instruments.
SMR TT Hybrid Glenoid also allows for an appropriate soft tissues management and the enhancement of joint stability thanks to 12 different glenoid options:
- 3 glenoid face sizes to better fit with the anatomy;
- 2 polyethylene thicknesses to allow for a proper soft tissues tensioning;
- 2 radii of curvature to increase joint stability.
SMR TT Hybrid Glenoid combines the evolved modularity and the convertibility of the SMR System to the proven fixation ensured by TT, being a unique implant with proven performances.
