Implant Design Elbow Replacement The Latitude EV Elbow Arthroplasty System is designed to match the anatomy of the elbow The innovative Latitude EV gives surgeons the ability to reproduce the natural flexion/extension axis and restore natural kinematics of the elbow with its anatomic design. Humeral spool Concave barrel shaped trochlea allows for preservation of linear contact through 7º varus/valgus movement with ulnar component. Ulnar Stem Shape replicates natural bow of the ulna to aid in ease of insertion and allows for reduced stresses on the cortical wall. Humeral Stem Square shape allows for rotational stability. Anterior Flange For bone graft Medial/Lateral Fins Designed to reduce risk of rotation Ulnar Cap Option To enable use as a linked or unlinked implant Radial Head Options Sixty percent of comprehensive loads are transferred across the radiohumeral joint. 1 Latitude is unique because it enables surgeons to maintain the radiohumeral joint when alignment is adequate. Indications The Latitude EV Elbow Arthroplasty System is intended for total elbow arthroplasty. Prosthetic replacement with this device may be indicated to relieve severe pain or significant disability following the effects of primary or secondary osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis; correction of functional deformities; revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed; treatment of fractures that are unmanageable using other techniques. The Latitude EV Elbow Arthroplasty System is intended for cemented use only. References 1. Morrey et al., JBJS 70-A 1988.
