Intraoperative Stem
Repositioning or Removal
Should an Avenir Complete stem require removal,
only the specific extraction instrument should be
used.
Assemble the extractor adapter with the extractor
and thread it to the final implant. Pull the stem out
in line with the femoral shaft, by using the slide
hammer (Figure 16).
