Jorgensen Femoral Head Disarticulator

JORGENSEN LABS INC
Overview This Femoral Head Disarticulator is designed to disarticulate the head of the femur from the acetabulum.

  • Particularly useful in cases of femoral neck fracture and femoral head excision, where manipulation of the femur is difficult
  • Curved blade slides around and between the head of the femur and acetabulum
  • Sharpened notch at the tip locates and cuts through the round ligament
  • The femoral head now can be elevated by the disarticulator and removed
  • Use to engage and sever the round ligament during total head and neck excision
