Head/Neck/Stem Interferences
Depending upon whether a
Straight or an Angled Neck
is used, there are certain
humeral head and stem
configurations that are not
compatible and may cause
head/stem interferences. A
listing of these head/stem
interferences is provided to
the right.

Humeral Head and Glenoid Radius
of Curvature Mismatch
The Turon system is designed with a radius of curvature
mismatch between the humeral heads and the glenoid
components. The mismatch is dierent in the A/P and I/S
planes to optimize stability while allowing translational
articulation. Highlighted size pairings represent
recommended mismatches (see matrices).

51. Can I use the Foundation Fracture trials with
Turon for fracture cases?
No.TheFoundationFracturetrialsarenotcompatible
withtheTuronhumeralstems.Theproximal
