Primary Shoulder System

The Equinoxe Primary System redefines “anatomical.” The anatomic (primary) shoulder allows the surgeon to replicate a patient’s unique anatomy by independently adjusting parameters in situ.

Equinoxe Primary Shoulder System Features and Benefits

Patented Replicator Plate
  • Only system allowing in situ adjustment of retroversion, neck angle, medial offset, and posterior offset—no trials or back table assembly required1-3
  • Dual eccentricities (head and replicator plate) provide independent adjustability of medial and posterior offset, enhancing the ability to anatomically orient the humeral head2-4
Humeral Head
  • Multiple head heights for each diameter provides surgeon flexibility in patients with soft tissue challenges
  • The alpha and beta glenoid curvatures enable any head size to be paired with any glenoid size while maintaining an optimal radial mismatch of approximately 5.5mm.6-8
