Yes. Hip Prosthesis with Ceramic Head and Ti-6Al-4V/SS316L/Co-Cr alloy stem are superior than the ones available in India because of following reasons. • Superior bio-compatibility. • Enhanced corrosion resistance when compared with complete Prostheses with more conventional stainless steel and cobalt chromium based alloys. • Better wear resistance of Ceramic Heads results in a much longer performance life.
