The VancoGenx® SPACE Hip Stem is an interim femoral prosthesis by Tecres; it is implanted temporarily as part of two-stage revision procedures performed due to infection. It is enriched with Gentamicin and Vancomycin and features a reinforced core made of implant steel (AISI 316L). Bone cement can be used to anchor the prosthesis in the collar area to protect the implant against rotational instability.
