A Return to Normal Elbow Functionality
With lower rates of complications and less requirement for restriction to activities post-surgery, the LRE System offers clinically proven results for restoring the normal anatomy and function in the elbow joint. All this in one, single-use instrumentation kit designed for your patient.
Resurfacing not replacement
Reduced Recovery Time
Resurfacing rather than replacement means reduced recovery period.
The reduced nature of the surgery required and the unique design of the LRE System mean that recovery times are reduced significantly, with less need for pain-killers and hospital stays and a quicker return to your patient’s normal daily activities.
Clinically Beneficial
Proven to Improve Lives
Clinically proven to benefit your patients’ lives.
Multiple clinical studies have shown the LRE System to benefit patients’ recovery, both in terms of lessened associated complications and by ensuring that patients see a return to normal elbow anatomy, with pain and extension-flexion scores much improved when compared to alternative prosthetic elbow implants.
Patient specific
Elbow-in-a-box
Manufactured to best fit the elbow anatomy of each patient.
We recognise that each patient and their elbow are unique in terms of their functional requirements and using digital imaging, the LRE System utilises the state-of-the-art OrthoView™ pre-operative planning system to select the most appropriate components for your unique and individual elbow.
What People Are Saying
An [LRE] may allow a TEA to be postponed until the patient is older, by redistributing the loads between the two compartments of the joint.
Dr Giuseppe Giannicola, Italy
With lower rates of complications, we now recommend LRE arthroplasty rather than TEA as the primary form of implant.
Bone Joint Journal, 2018
I believe that this prosthesis is really a future approach for elbow diseases.
Professor Renzo Angeloni, Italy
I like to emphasise that the LRE is cornerstone in elbow surgery. Every elbow surgeon will come to this indication!
Dr. Martin Chochole, Austria
Radiocapitellar arthroplasty is useful in symptomatic patients with primary and post-traumatic OA in whom the ulnohumeral compartment is preserved.
Dr Giuseppe Giannicola, Italy
