Products: Futura Lesser Metatarsal Phalangeal Joint Implant

The Futura Lesser Metatarsophalangeal Joint Implant is the first prosthesis designed specifically to supplement lesser metatarsal phalangeal joint arthroplasty. Constructed of UltraSIL™ medical grade silicone elastomer, the implant features stems designed to fit the intramedullary canals of the proximal phalanx and the lesser metatarsal. The LMP is offered in four sizes and is supported by a custom instrumentation set.

Features and Benefits
The distal hinge buttress is anatomically designed to fit the contours of the proximal phalanx.
Bone resection is limited to a simple vertical cut.
The hinge design allows for excellent range of motion without stressing the prosthesis.
