Pelvis with Femur Orthobone
The Pelvis with Femur Orthobone is a high quality anatomical model, available as either the left or right pelvis. The thigh bone is attached to the acetabulum with an elastic nylon band. This allows for flexible movement which demonstrates the basic anatomical function of the joint.
The model is cast from a real specimen and features a two part construction, with a hard, outer cortical shell and a softer, inner cancellous bone. This makes the Pelvis with Femur incredibly realistic.
It can be used by surgeons for training purposes, as well as by medical engineers to demonstrate new medical devices. Screws, implants and plates can be used on the model, as well as high contrast x-rays.
Orthobones are the most advanced simulated bones on the market, making fantastic aids to those within the medical profession.

Benefits of Orthobones
Throughout the world, surgeons and medical engineers are taking advantage of the newly developed Orthobones. Orthobones are premium class workshop bones designed for all orthopaedic surgical training needs. Cast from real specimen, these are quality simulated, anatomically correct bone models: the most advanced simulated bones on the market.
The shape and physical properties of Orthobones are like those of a genuine human bone, with excellent mechanical characteristics and an innovative production process. The key to the impressive similarity to real bones lies in the multi-layered construction of cortical and cancellous bones.
The Orthobones can be used for all your workshop and training needs. The models are made from a special mixture of plastics, which enables the use of imaging procedures, such as x-rays, without any pre-processing of the material.
Screws can also be secured to the rigid cortical bone, and implants and plates can be used on it, making Orthobones fantastic for realistic surgical training.
Uses of Orthobones
The premium class Orthobones have numerous uses and are incredibly useful structures to those within the medical profession, such as surgeons, medical engineers and professors. Such uses include:
- Demonstrations - allow you to easily and effectively demonstrate placements of plates, screws and implants
- Training - keep surgical training as realistic as possible with high quality simulated bone material
- Implant technology - test and train the placement of implants and medical devices
- Large workshops
- Osteosynthetic procedures
- Medical education - aids anatomy studies
