cemented prostheses
Cemented prostheses are artificial joints, like hips or knees, secured into the body using a special medical cement. This cement acts like a strong glue, anchoring the prosthesis firmly to the bone, providing immediate stability. It allows for quicker recovery and earlier movement compared to cementless options. The cement is designed to be durable and compatible with the body, ensuring the artificial joint functions effectively for many years. Cemented prostheses are a common choice in joint replacement surgeries, especially when patients need a stable and reliable attachment of the artificial joint.
