    The Ascension PyroHemiSphere (PHS) is single-use, uncemented, one-component prosthesis for the CMC joint.

    • Semi-constrained hemi design is bone friendly
    • Functional articulation reproduces range of motion
    • Cementless
    Implant Durability

    Twenty years of clinical experience* as a ball-and-socket MCP total joint replacement demonstrate:
    • Biocompatibility – an average of 11.8 years of long-term follow-up with high degree of patient satisfaction.
    • Fatigue and Wear Resistance – tissue samples show no evidence of adverse wear.
    • Device Strength and Durability.

    Surgical Information:
  • PHS Surgical Technique
  • PHS Stabilizing Suture Technique


    • Implant Stability

    • Biochemical and Biomechanical Compatibility promotes biological fixation and inert nature of PyroCarbon eliminates concern with silicone and other less biocompatible materials.
    • Cementless – eliminating potential cement-related complications.
    Easy-to-use instrumentation promote implant alignment,stability, and restored joint kinematics.
    • Bone removal is minimized.
    • Critical soft tissue structures are preserved.
    • Alignment Awl and Guides provide accurate visual reference along the bone axis promoting restoration of anatomic bone alignment.
