These bone cements adhere to ISO Standard 5833, ensuring they meet high-quality standards. The product range includes options for both high and low viscosity applications. High viscosity cements, such as Cement 1 and Cement Genta 1, are tailored for manual applications in procedures like total knee replacements and shoulder prostheses. Meanwhile, low viscosity cements, such as Cement 3 and Cement Genta 3, are suited for syringe applications in intramedullary fixation for bones like the femur and humerus. With decades of experience behind their formulation, these cements balance technical and chemical properties with proven functionality, contributing to their reliability and performance in clinical settings.Most popular related searches

In 1958, the very first total hip endoprosthesis implant was performed using PMMA bone cement. Today, over 60 years later, the use of bone cement is a common procedure in hip and knee arthroplasties.
In addition to the technical and chemical properties of different types of bone cements, the functional behaviour of a bone cement is an important aspect to consider when selecting a good cement.
The current composition of the Surgival cement range is backed by extensive experience, acquired over many years, of the main types of cements available on the market.
