United Orthopedic UTF Reduced Stem 5 6 Appropriate lateralization of the canal entry when needed is important to prevent medial shift alignment of the prosthetic stem during insertion. Utilize the Canal Finder Rasp manually to enlarge the canal laterally beneath the greater trochanter. This step helps to guide the axis of the femur for subsequent broaching and stem implantation. Lateralization Canal Finder Rasp Instruments D. Canal Broaching Instruments E. Multiple broach handle options are provided to accommodate different surgical approaches for hip replacement. A Starter Broach can be utilized to provide an initial reference for the direction of subsequent femoral broaching. Attach the smallest UTF Broach, Reduced to the proper Broach handle . Start broaching along the axis of the femur maintaining the appropriate orientation of the broach until the cutting edge is fully seated under the resection line. Gradually enlarge the broach size until the planned template size is achieved. Confirm the axial and rotational stability of the final broach. Two types of broaches are provided: ● UTF Broach, Reduced (Gold) - the interference between implant and broach is 0.5 mm per side. ● UTF Broach, Reduced, ML 0 mm (Silver) - the ML dimension of the broach is identical to the implant.
