摘要
Summary: The design of the PROSTALAC implant provides an effective means to treat patients with infected arthroplasties of the hip and knee. The use of this device significantly reduces hospital admission time, overall rehabilitation, and operating time. The PROSTALAC provides effective treatment of sepsis, reducing patient morbidity and rehabilitation from prolonged immobility and permits a less complicated approach to placement of the final arthroplasty components.
