Prosthetic hip joints and Gruen zones C016 / 6781
Prosthetic hip joints and Gruen zones. Diagram of the femoral components of two types of hip prosthesis with labels indicating standard and modified Gruen zones. The components are implanted in the femur (thigh bone) after the head of the femur has been surgically removed. The other components (not shown) are a rounded ball to fit into the socket implanted in the patients pelvis. Gruen zones are used to assess bone mineral density (BMD) after total hip replacement surgery. These are both cementless prostheses (Symax at left). For a set of Gruen zone diagrams, see C016/6776 to C016/6781

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases prosthetic hip joints and Gruen zones, providing a detailed diagram of the femoral components of two types of hip prosthesis. The image highlights the standard and modified Gruen zones with labels, which are essential in assessing bone mineral density (BMD) after total hip replacement surgery. These cementless prostheses, including Symax on the left side, are ingeniously designed to be implanted in the femur following surgical removal of the head of the femur. The photograph emphasizes both the technological advancements and intricate nature of artificial joint replacements. It serves as a visual representation of medical innovation and expertise in orthopedic surgery. With its white background and metal elements, this artwork provides an insightful perspective into how these devices aid in repairing damaged hips caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis or injury. The labeled sections offer a comprehensive comparison between different components, enabling healthcare professionals to make informed decisions when selecting appropriate implants for patients undergoing hip revision or total hip replacement procedures. This image is not only informative but also visually striking due to its cut-out style that allows viewers to examine each element closely. Overall, this print from D & L GRAPHICS / SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY captures both the technical aspects and aesthetic appeal associated with prosthetic hip joints while highlighting their crucial role in improving quality of life through advanced medical interventions.
